      Egad, 13 miles? Good luck with that. I made it 10 miles one time and that was about my limit and I only weighed 150 lbs at the time. I envy you folks who still have cartilage in your knees

    Wow, that's an amazing goal! :) My 9 year old keeps asking me if I'll run a 5K with her...I think you just inspired me to make that my goal for this year!

    Wishing you the best of luck!

    Congrats on your weightloss!

    YOU can do it! Just find the pace thats comfortable for you, and one step after another...WHEN you get to the end, be proud of your accomplishment!

    How much walking/running do you currently do? What are your plans for training? Remember, you'll only ever do your 1st HM once, so enjoy it!

    You and I started at the same weight......Isn't it exciting to even be thinking of such things?!?!?! Congrats again and best wishes! I'm so excited for you!!
