One of the trainers at my gym told me it was not possible. I did my best to prove him wrong. I've lost at least 20 lbs since I started adding long distance running to my routine.

My bibs are all currently crammed in a drawer. I need to do something with them. I've considered scrapbooking them with a picture from each race, but I hardly have time to scrapbook my kids stuff let alone my races. lol

So far I am up to 80 lbs lost... no plans on giving up! Take it one day at a time...

Yep. Been there done that. Running is very much a mental thing. You just gotta find a way to help yourself get over the mental hurdles... music, a mantra.. anything. Have faith in yourself and know that it DOES get easier!!!

Like the pp said, it isn't so much the cold but the wind (and precipitation!). I try to avoid pruposely running in rain or snow but don't mind the cold.

I am interested in this as well. When I trained for my half marathons I did 3 days a week of strength training. I am training for a full later this year and am unsure of how many days to incorporate into my training plan.

I use them a few times a week, various sizes and exercises. I have a love/hate relationship with kettlebells. The workouts I do with them get my adrenaline flowing and I'm all fired up ready to kick someone's butt... haha I love how I feel afterwards and getting out of bed the next day can be a challenge.

I love spinning! I'm a runner so that is my first choice for exercise but I take spinning 1-2 times a week as my cross training. It usually kicks my butt every single time.

Set small goals and work on the ultimate goal as you go. I say that because setting a huge goal at first may seem daunting, especially on weeks you only maintain or even gain. Baby steps. I had initially (at 237 lbs) set my goal weight at 160. Once I got there I decided 140s. I am now 158 and have decided to try my best to…
