I RAN A 5K "I DID IT"

JUST TO LET YOU ALL KNOW I HAVE LOST 130 POUNDS AND I RAN A 5K ON SAT. I FINISHED IN THE TOP 150 OUT OF 1000 I'M HOOKED NOW AND PLAN ON RUNNING ANOTHER NEXT WEEKEND. WHEN I FINISHED THE TEARS JUST ROLLED BECAUSE A YEAR AGO THIS WOULD NOT BE POSSIBLE. I WAS ASKED IF I WAS TO GIVE ANYONE ADVICE WHAT WOULD IT BE. SET A GOAL AND ACCOMPLI**** NO MATTER HOW SMALL OR GREAT WE CAN ALL DO THIS. HOPE EVERYONE IS DOING GREAT, I LOVE TO HEAR ALL OF YOUR STORIES. JULIE

Awesome job! Isn't it addicting to do the races? I've walked 2 5K's and a 10K a couple of weeks ago. I walked the 6 miles last night again, but would like to start adding a little more so that I can walk a 1/2 marathon in October. I feel your excitement! It's awesome. I posted a pic crossing the finish line of the 10K on my profile if ya feel like looking. I would love to see one of yours, too. Congratulations and keep it up! That's so Hugs, Kerri

Julie, I am very proud of you! All of the junies are doing great and you athletes amaze me! I need your inspiration to help me. I haven't been able to motivate myself enough to get moving, but I have got to get going. You will be in such good shape! Keep up the good work! Lots of love, Wendy

Good for you! Congrats!

Best Wishes and congratulations Julie.... You must feel fabulous... 5k sounds like a wonderful goal... and I'm sure you'll get so hooked you'll be in the boston marathon next. Best wishes to you. me? I mow the lawn. Perhaps if I ran I coud lose these last 15 pounds.
