Here's an article I was honored to be asked to write for the local running club that I'm part of. It's a good overview of my weight-loss and fitness journey:

    Great story! Thank you for sharing. I am struggling with running - heel pain and shin splits - so I will check out the book.

    Congratulations!!!

    Inspiring. I am just starting to run at the walk run pace. I also find c25k too demanding. I will look out for a copy of 'Born to Run'.
