    WOW! You are a rockstar in my book! That is such an inspiration to me! I used to run track and cross country in high school years ago, but because of my weight, I have the same frame of mind that you did, I can't because I weigh almost 300lbs. After seeing this, I just may have to test myself a little and see what happens! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for inspiring me this morning!!

    This is SO awesome! I really really want to try jogging....I have never done it. I know sometimes I am on the treadmill and I get so tempted...but my brain keeps telling me that I am still too big and will look stupid :( You inspire me to try! Thanks :)
