I took me a year to complete C25K, and I finished by running my first 5K race last March. On the Feb. 24th I am running my first 1/2 marathon race. Yesterday I went out for a practice run and I made it! Not bad for a guy that was in ICU less than 2 years ago.

    Congrats!! That's awesome. I haven't run for 2 years (stupid achilles injury), but reading about your progress is inspiring me to take it up again this spring. Thank you for the motivation, and good luck at the 1/2!!!
