    Congratulations to you! It is NOT a cliche to say a journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step. And the really awesome thing is your journey is continuing and you keep hitting bigger and better milestones -- Ironman?!? WOW!!

    Great story!! I love your quote: "Change is a funny thing, Rucker says. Often, the desire to change grows over time. A series of events leads to an "a ha moment," when desire must meet with the proper tools and the right inspiration." I have found this true for me. Congrats on what you have accomplished.

    AMAZING!!! Great story! Thank you for sharing that. Now I know I need to get my butt outside on my lunch hour and walk if nothing else. So many days I try to run on my lunch hour and lift at night. But hearing your story reminds me that it is okay to walk if I don't feel like running - as long as I'm doing something.

    I read her story also, and it made a LOT of sense to me. Worth checking out if anyone has not read it. :)
