CABIN FEVER

This week has been a REAL TEST. 3 days stuck in the house due to the snow and ice in Atlanta. With the Ga 1/2 marathon in 2 months I need to be outside running not pulling my hair out watching the walls. Time to get a treadmill

What a difference a year makes. Jan 1 2010 I decided with my fiance to start our year with the Atlanta Track Club and run Resolution Run 2010 5K. maybe we should try the 5k. End results a 51:30 time for me and a renewed competitive spirit I hadn't had since my days of playing football. During the course of 2010 I have logged numorus miles, met tons of new friends and lost some pounds too. Fast forward January 1, 2011 Resolution Run 2011.... My time 42:03 this is going to be a good year.

Happy New Year

As I look at 2010 I think about how far I have come. From my first 5K 1/1/2010 to my first 1/2 Marathon. Tomorrow marks my 1 year anniversary as a runner and I really get to measure myself. SAME RACE, SAME COURSE..... BUT I AM A DIFFERENT MAN.

January 2010 - NOW


I have come along way this year. Hard to believe that I just ran a 1/2 marathon 2 days ago but I have the pain in my ankles and legs as a reminder. Last Thanksgiving I was so thankful to see another holiday and vowed that I would change my lifestyle and get healthy over the next 365 days. A year later I ran a 1/2 Marathon on Thanksgiving Day .
I am proud of myself for all the progress I have made. I have heard of going from couch potato to 5K but in 2010 I've gone from couch potato to 5K-10K and now I have earned my first medal . COUCH POTATO TO 1/2 MARATHON in 365 days.

Homecoming 2010 - A look in the Mirror

This past weekend was my high school homecoming. I had a chance to see and talk to alot of old friends and former teammates. Received several comments on my new slimmer look. And also got to look back at myself 15 years ago when I was high school senior 10 pounds lighter than i am right now. Out of shape and going through the motion'sof sports, school, life and growing up. Everyone wants to know why i do so much more. What happened from then to now? LOL i do it for the looks on your faces. I do it for the doubter's and naysayer's . I do this cause no one expected it of me. I do this for me
