NSV - I'm a runner?

A couple of comments from strangers in the past few weeks have really boosted my motivation:
1) At a doctor appointment, the nurse took my vitals and said, "You have the heart rate of a runner." I said, "Funny you should mention that because I'm training for my 6th half marathon and hope to do a full some day."
2) A mom at my son's soccer game said, "You're quite the runner." When I asked how she came to that conclusion, she said, "I see you running down Driscoll Blvd all the time."
I really needed to hear things like that because it motivates me to keep on going. I've lost 58 pounds, but the closer I get to my goal the slower the pounds are coming off.

I'll be happy the day I can actually run a 5km, so I can't imagine how amazing that must feel.
Well done! I look forward to hearing that you've done a FULL MARATHON!0
