Hi everybody. I'm new to MFP, and wanted to see who else is on here. I'm a happily married working mom with two little people, and forgot to take care of myself over the past 5 years. I have 65 pounds to lose, and would like to run my first 1/2 marathon by November. I'm starting off from scratch, so any advice would be greatly appreciated! Please send friend requests!
