cube68 Posted February 7, 2015 Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 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 cube68 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackielm1961 Posted February 8, 2015 Report Share Posted February 8, 2015 Good for you! I'm excited for you:-) I just started c25k today. I am 54 yrs old and my eldest son and his wife run races all the time. They got me interest in giving it a go. My daughter-in-law turned me on to this program, and I am pumped!
