Hi all I am a 56 year old male. I have really let myself get fat. I am 309 and would like to get to 185. My wife is very supportive and I am blessed with a good job. I will be starting my journey, which I just decided to do an hour ago with green smoothies and light walking. Maybe someday I will run a half marathon!
I will all of you the best on your own journey!
Take care!
Bill

I give you two years.
TWO YEARS TO COMPLETE A HALF MARATHON!
Your first milestone is a 5K by the end of summer - you can even run/walk it and all that counts is that you finish.
Then do it again a month later and beat your time.0
