    I'm waaaaaay too tired to be up still, but I wanted to read all the stories. :) I can't believe how lucky I was to stumble into this group of great people. We all help and inspire each other and that makes us all stronger.

    So I somehow managed 2.5 miles today in between crazy spread out work shifts. August total 10 miles

    8/4 - .75
    TTD - .75

    That was my run on the treadmill. Taking it easy with running and also doing it inside because it's hard to run and breathe in 105 degree weather. Planned on going outside in the evening for a long walk but a one hour baseball board meeting turned into three hours, so no walk.

    3.6 mile walk

    Love reading everyone's stories. This is a good group of people and I'm glad I stumbled onto it 28 months ago. I was just starting this whole weight loss thing, not active at all and morbidly obese. I started out pledging 30-35 miles per month and not always making it, and amazed at some of the numbers people were churning out here. It was a little hard not to feel inadequate in the beginning, but as I upped the miles, that went away. I love that this group makes me want to get out there, in the blazing sun, the rain or the snow. Besides the physical benefits, it's definitely helped my mental/emotional well being. If I have to miss a day due to back to back 12 hour shifts, I can feel it.

    So, 28 months later, I'm going close to, or over 100 miles, I've incorporated some running and even started taking a cycling class, due to all the cyclists on here and reading all their posts. I've learned a lot about it. I left morbidly obese behind and I'm down 100 lbs and 12 more away from being "normal" weight. I've got 2300+ miles tracked - I've almost walked across the US! :o It's mind boggling

    Feeling grateful,
    Karen

    Love you story! You've done an amazing job!!!

    Thanks @carlsoda and @just_ceci :):)

    I was so busy writing that I forgot to include my ticker for yesterday's numbers. I can't edit that post.

    Now off to TRX and probably cycling class to work on today's miles.

    18.6 miles today, 13 in cycling class, 5.6 running/walking outside. Made myself run 3.1 miles, despite the 95 degree weather. Stayed alive by promising myself I'd add ice cream to my protein shake if I made it home.
