Lightest weight running (a pretty big SV)

Passed through a couple of my mini-goals this week.
262 was where I took pictures so when I run my first marathon I can say "I went from 262 to 26.2"
261 was the lightest weight I've ever been running (back in 2008) before I stopped running and ballooned in weight.
Now I'm 259. This means that I am doing less and less damage to my joints all the time. One more pound and I'll have lost 25 since joining MFP on February 11.
I am also only 11 pounds away from being the lightest my wife has ever seen me (10+ years married, known her almost 13 years).

Sounds great - you've also made me realise that my husband has never seen me lighter than I am now. I've just reached the weight I was when we got married, but want to go a lot further. It all feels very exciting - I look forward to following your progress.0
