I did it!!! Ran a 5k race for breast cancer. Not only did I help raise money I achieved to me what I thought impossible It was unbelievable considering where I was just over 2 years ago. Prior to this, I have never excercised or seen the inside of a gym. Was never a sporty person all my life. Yesterday proved it can be done. Whatever your goal....it is achievable. I lost just over 6 stones prior getting on MFP and promised myself one day I'll run in a race. I know it's only 5k but for me it was a huge achievement. I am doing the 10k next in October and who knows, next time it might just be the London Marathon!!!! Just thought I'll share this little bit of achievement with you all.
