OK, quick blog today — I have two quick announcements, although first, Tiff found this picture. I’ve mentioned here before that I lost a fair amount of weight after I started running. I maxed out at 261 pounds and I’m down at about 194 now. I love looking at my fat pictures and seeing how far I’ve come. But this one takes the cake. And the chips. And the cookies. And the cheeseburgers.
For comparison’s sake, here I am on the left on Saturday with my oldest son, Benjamin, and my brother Josh.
If I can do it, you can, too!
OK, now here are a couple of race announcements:
1. If you haven’t already checked out my friend Jonathan Gunderson’s race in San Francisco on September 8, CLICK HERE! It’s an inexpensive race that benefits a great cause. If you’re going to be in the Bay Area on September 8 and you’re not running a race, GET OUT THERE! It’s a short race, so you really don’t need to be a runner! Get out there or at least spread to word to others who might be able to get out there. HINT: There are share links at the bottom of this page to post via Facebook and Twitter!
2. If you’re thinking about running the Operation Jack Marathon this year or participating as a satellite runner, I’m going to announce something special tomorrow that’s only going to be valid … tomorrow. So check back to see what that is!
Have a great Tuesday!
Great job! Also, I will be checking your blog tomorrow for sure.
HI JOSH!!!
Looking forward to tomorrow’s announcement! WIll check for sure!
Hi Sarah!
That’s incredible! How long between that and the epic year of marathoning?
That’s amazing! What an incredible journey you’ve been on.
