This should be fun
« on: June 01, 2011, 04:41:05 pm »
I competed in strength athletics for several years, before it got to be too time and money consuming.  Here recently I've decided to try to loose some of the weight I worked so hard to put on, and got back to running with the hopes of doing a 5k or something soon.  Well, I signed up for that 5k today, ony this one has a few twists thrown in for fun.

As an aside, I'm now under 220 lbs.  I feel like crying.   :'(
