    Keep up the good work and motivation.
  • You've inspired me to consider learning to run. How can I be 46 and not know how to run? EASY! It's HOT here (TX) so much of the year. The concrete sucks my energy. My breathing.... well... there doesn't seem to be any air out there. Time is a HUGE issue (teaching school is really a 12-14 hour a day job). :) The thought seems oh, so overwhelming. So those are my hangups. But you've planted a seed..... ;~)

    At 375lbs the thought of running was quite overwhelming, but as soon as you make the first steps, it gets better and better! Im glad I was able to help motivate you to try it!
