It’s Official…
It is official…I’m a runner. Never in my life would I have ever thought that me and my sister would be RUNNING in the park. Almost a year ago I weighed 35-40 lbs. more than I do now. I couldn’t go up the 8 or so steps at my mom’s house without being out of breath. Yesterday I ran over a mile. I won’t lie. It wasn’t a “walk in the park,” but It was awesome. I understand the post run rush that runners get. The truth is that God has brought me to this place. He has given me the motivation to exercise. He gave me the competitive drive to push myself beyond what i think I can do. Believe me, I definately couldn’t do that much running before yesterday! Needless-to-say, I’m stoked!!!!
To me running is now part of engaging life, so put on your tennis shoes and get to steppin’.

Sharon, this is quite eery because I’ve just started to attempt the same thing…starting to train up for running when I’ve never ever been a runner before!
I hope to succeed like you did!
