I have a lot of work ahead of me, but I'm proud of my progress so far. :)

My first 5k was September 16, 2011 @ 230 lbs.
My first HM was September 15, 2011 @ 210 lbs.
Exciting! :happy:

    Way to go, Girl! And what a great half-marathon!

    My first 5K was in October 2011 (the Ghost n' Goblin 5K), and I completed my first half 2 weeks ago. I know how challenging and rewarding it is!

    Thanks for the inspiration! I'm running my first 5K on October 13th and I'm hoping to run a half-marathon this Spring in Nashville. Nice to see someone about the same size as me accomplishing their goals!

    Ghosts N' Goblins was my second 5k! My son really wants to do Turkey Trot with me this year, so I think we might do the one mile run. He's seven, and I think five miles might be too much for him. Maybe next year though!
