This morning I ran my first 5k... actually ran the whole time-- no walking-- in 35 minutes flat. To say that I am over the moon would be an understatement. Its so exciting to think of how far I have come since July and then to think about how far I still have to go (weight loss wise)-- who knows what I will be able to accomplish physically as I get closer and closer to my goal.

Keep up the good work everyone, and thanks for the daily inspiration.

    By the way, you might write a letter to yourself about this moment and read it when you're struggling to get going.
