    Great job! 2 years ago I couldn't walk 1/4 mile without pain and rest stops. I started walking and personal training. This past Saturday, I participated in my 3rd 10K with ease. I ran the first 20 minutes without stopping, plus a few more running intervals, and walked the rest. 137 pounds lost to date.

    PS I live in the Pacific NW, so I take LOTS of walks in the rain. A wide brimmed rain hat, and rainproof parka & pants make me barely notice it. The hardest part is mental--just convincing myself to go out in the muck, LOL.
