I ran a half marathon yesterday. I am so glad that I have completed one of my lifetime goals. I was glad that I was not the fattest nor the last one to cross the finish line. I have been exercising consecutively for over a year now. That is the longest I have ever done in my life. I have the exercise down, now I just have to master the diet again. I want to run a marathon but I want to shed 50 more pounds. YAY for the 13.1!
