I went to Myrtle Beach last week to run my 1st marathon. It was an amazing experience. I was so blessed to be able to share my story with the local NBC affiliate. They ran my story during their live coverage of the marathon. Here's the story: http://www.wmbfnews.com/story/16966930/kentucky-man-loses-100-lbs-and-runs-marathon
