If its Jay, he is great! He will keep your ass motivated... if its not Jay, id ask for him!

Ive seen him on and off for the last year!

Very Happy for you! I'll race you when I'm done and healed.... say a sprint from Fort William to Port Arthur!

Hi Robin,
I just saw Jay today for the first time and he told me about this website. I am presurgery by the way, but I found him very helpful and encouraging !! He told me about this website and I came home and signed up right away...its so helpful to read things from other people going through the same thing !

Robin, speaking as someone who's had those goals, i can tell you that you CAN DO THIS!!!

I did the "learn to run" program at the Running ROom, last august to october. I've got a goall right now to do a 5 k by the end of february, and a 10k at the end of April.

Last night, at my running group, i actually ran for three 10 minute intervals, and we did some "speed intervals", and i freaking kept up with the group!!!

It makes me feel sooooooooooooooo awesome!!

The leader of the group is so supportive, and so positive. I havent told her about my weight loss journey, about the surgery, this is a group of people who don't know my history, and i think i just want to be the "here and now" Monica, practice being that person for a while. (although i know that all Monicas i was before now are alllllllll part of me now!)
