Who would of ever thunk it !!

Nov 17, 2009

On November 16 2009, I started on a running program with my old fitness trainer Nikki...yep that's right folks I started running !!    I got the email last week that Nikki was going to train for a half marathon and she needed someone to train with and asked me if I was up for it.  I don't really think that she thought that I would say yes...but I did and now we are running !!  Yeehaw !!

Actually we run for 2 minutes and walk for 1 minute.  This we repeat 5 times.  My partner in crime says that we cover about 3 km's in total by the time we are done.  To top that all off we finish with a very brisk half hour walk to cool down. 

It has always been a dream of mine to jog or run...just never thought I would do it.  So January of 2008 I was 340 pounds and could hardly climb on a treadmill let alone walk on one and now I am running !!  Now if that does not give you some incentive to get active nothing will.

There have been a lot of changes in my life since my surgery.  I have had tons and tons of WOW moments over the past 6 months. 

The thing is this is just the beginning and there are lots more good things to come...heck I just might run that half marathon with Nikki in the spring and WOW the socks off of everybody including myself.

I am going to try to keep this blog more up to date from here on in.

Thanks for stopping by...I hope I moved you.
