At my highest weight of 447 pounds, the idea of walking further than from my couch to the fridge was utterly ridiculous.

Having now lost 250+ pounds....I just registered for my very first 5K Run/Walk.  It is at an Exotic Feline Rescue Facility.  It's a great cause, the scenery will be very unique, but the best part is.... I will be participating in it!!  I still can't wrap my head around that idea --As a walker, this body is not runner material yet.  I can't wait! 

Here is the Run/Walk I am participating in.

My first 5K is in May. I will be fast-walking most of it. I've been training but it is time to get really serious. Good luck to you.

Congrats!  I'm registered for one in May, too, and can't wait!  Running is a favorite hobby of mine and I've missed it so much!  These races are SO addicting!
