Signed up for a Half Marathon!!

Well it's been over a year now since I decided to make a positive change in my life once and for all. For those don't know I started my weight loss experience in January last year. I was 340lbs and life was pretty much non existant for me. I'd hide away from social occassions and used to eat for comfort.
It took a lot of soul searching to find out the cause of my poor diet and health but as the months went by I found myself discovering the real me. I was working out daily and also eating healthily and started feeling good about myself for the first time in 15 years. In August last year I started running outdoors and found it really rewarding. In September I'd manage to lose 100lbs which was my target but I didn't want to stop there and kept up with my running and swimming. In December I'd manage to lose a total of 140lbs and it was awesome to finally reach the 10 stone mark lost.
Recently, I have left my wife as wasn't happy with that aspect of my life so decided to finally change that. The past few weeks have been awful in all fairness and my healthy eating and exercise has suffered.

I have managed to get in to my head again that eating badly and not exercising actually makes matters worse so decided to finally sign up to do a half marathon in September of this year. Through my experience last year and what I went through I've learnt that life is for living and not moping around feeling sorry for yourself.

I'm hoping to complete the half marathon in less than 2 hours, now a new chapter in my life has begun and I'm excited once again at the prospect of doing something positive. No matter what happens, you have to believe in yourself and contol your own destiny.

Thanks for reading.
