I'm doing my first 5K on Saturday.  I'll run as much as I can and walk the rest.  Either way, it's a new PR for me!  I'm so thankful for this surgery and the new relationship I have with food and exercise.  Keep me in your thoughts and prayers on Saturday morning.

I will definately let you guys know how I did.  At this point, if I start it, I've done more than I've ever done.  If I fini**** it will be wonderful.  If I run most of it, it will be fantastic.  Either way...a new PR!

I think I am addicted to running already.  I miss it every day I don't get to do it!
