Hey everyone, I just had Wow number 3 yesterday.  I have been running about 5 days a week, for the last few months and usually find I have the stamina for about 40 minutes running time.  I decided to see how far I was running in that time, so got in the car and drove "my" course.  To my surprise it was 3.9 miles  WOW!  I can't believe this is ME!  If you could have seen me the first time I started running ....too funny, but when I finally made it  up this big hill in my neighbor hood....I was doing the ROCKY thing when I got to the top.  Its a pretty busy street and I got a few looks, but I tell you what .....WHAT A HIGH! 

When I first started running I thought to myself ...maybe some day I will run a Marathon ....you know what ....If I am running 3.9 and a 5K run is like 3.1 -I CAN.  Too Cool!!!!  Have a great morning all.

Congratulations!  Wow moments are da bomb, don't you think? 

You should be happy you CAN run - my knees are shot from too many years of hauling my former bulk around.  Once in a while I catch myself - not RUNNING, but maybe TROTTING? to my phone at work from another part of the office, and I'm kinda jazzed about THAT! 

Good luck on building up to a marathon - WOW!  I would be in AWE!!!

WOW, this is HUGE. I myself was asked to run a 5k today and said no way. I cant even run yet. Walking is fine for me but not running let alone a 5k. I'm so excited for you and I am so happy you can do this. Its a goal of mine to be able to do exactly what you are doing now!
