One year of running

This past Saturday I celebrated my one year anniversary of running my first 5K... Since then I've ran over 600 miles, including a half marathon. Since joining MFP, I've learned how to eat, although not perfectly, better than ever before.

70 pounds lost with just a little bit to go. My face says "thank you" for all of MFP's support!
