    Thank you all! It's really been an amazing journey for me. I started in Feburary last year with small changes to my diet. Then on April 18th I started Couch 2 5K and I've not looked back since. In just 2 more weeks I'll do my 1st Ironman in Muncie, Indiana. It just blows me away that only 14 months ago I struggled to run 60 seconds straight and in just 15 days I'll swim 1.2 miles, cycle 56, and run 13.1 all in the same day. Now I want to use my story to inspire other people out there who feel the way that I used to feel: like there is no hope of changing things. But the great news is that things can change. And we each have the power inside of us to make those changes.


    You are awesome!!
    Congrats, and enjoy the trip!!

    It's one thing to drop weight, but I have to say that I am simply awed by your transformation. You have changed your life, not just your body. I am humbled, impressed and inspired.
