Been a fat kid all my life, had vertical sleeve surgery 2 months ago, down from 269lbs to 196lbs! Still have 25 lbs to go. Have always wanted to be a runner, so at 46 years old, I am starting my new life! My 9 year old daughter signed up for Girls On The Run, and I agreed to be her running buddy for their 5K in May. It will be a first for both of us! We also are pre-registered for a Color Vibe 5K in July. My real goal is to complete a Tough Mudder in the summer of 2016. This is my new life, #EveryMomentCounts

Welcome! You're never too old to try something new, you've got this!

W6d1 today. Yay getting faster. Loved that having done 20mins last week this one seemed a breeze, in my mind anyway. Legs still felt a bit heavy on the last 5 mins, and I have to keep telling myself to straighten up when I'm getting tired. I am actually looking forward to week 7. Yes I've gone mad!!! I am a (poorly postured and very slow) RUNNER!!

Hi JOJO, Welcome on here and proud of you for getting up off of the couch, you can do it! WOOTWOOT! We are here cheering you on!

Welcome and have fun. Great hobby!!
