2009 Step Out For Diabetes

The year after I was banded, I started doing the Couch to 5k program. I wanted to step up my exercise, but because I'd never done more than 30 min or so walking, I was a bit afraid of the longer distances. Doing it for a different cause - something beyond myself helped immensely.

This time, it was the Step Out for Diabetes Walk - it's an annual event and held in many places around the country - check to see if there's one going in your area and start your training now!
