What an awesome feeling I finally ran my first 5k in Little Rock Ark I've lost 86 pounds using Myfitnesspal over the last 9 months. My goal is to lose 100 pounds by July 22 my next 5k
. I had the honor of running it with my 75 yr old father and we completed in 32.49 training for my next race wanting to shave 6 minutes off my time by. Also wanting to attempt my first 10k in November Cajun Cup. Any tips?

    Great job on what you have accomplished! You will hit 100, no problem and probably surprise yourself by how much you actually find you are able to lose. As for tips, just keep pushing yourself to go faster and farther. Of course, getting lighter along the way is going to help too.

    As for you dad, that is downright inspiring! That is truly the ultimate goal, to be healthy and active for as long as possible and enjoy life.
