Just wanted to share a story I found out about yesterday....
A good friend...a fellow fat, unfit wrong side of 40 yr old pie loving football nutter just like me has been trying to change for the last 2 yrs.....
We all rib him for the weight he has lost...telling him to get some more pies in him etc....its how we do things....take the mick all the time....but so far he has gone from 16 stone to 12 stone in 2 yrs...
Yesterday he completed a mini triathlon, swim 400m bike 15km and run 5k...did it in under 2 hours...
I do not know if that is a good time or not...but I do not care...I am so impressed with this bloke....and yes I have told him...
I am currently on week 2 of the c25k and this has really give me a spurt to continue and not fail....I now know someone in real life that has done it.....and it proves to me it can be done....
Good luck everyone...
