| Freakin' awesome, Dave! Here I had this impression you had always been a fitness nut with as active as your whole family is. I had no idea you were... well... HUGE. Well done, my Canadian friend! You inspired me through your Columbus efforts and, I am inspired even more now. |

I had never been a fitness nut - until recently. I was in good shape as a youth due to my active interest in all sports. Since my early 20's though, Golf, and once a week hockey had been the extent of my exercise and it finally caught up to me. On occasion I tried to get back in shape but got turned off running due to the fact I didn;t realize C25K was supposed to be a drawn out task. I thought maybe my ankles, knees and lungs were f**&^%'d so I never stuck with it. Once I got past that barrier I fell in love with fitness. Since I started running consistently (April '06) I have run in 28 races - it will be 30 after this weekend's HM and my 3rd full M in 2 weeks. 40 yrs old.... and loving it!
Being a part of this site has helped ... as there are so many inspiring people hangin' 'round here  |

Does anyone one else keep track of the number races you have run? I have run 18 Peachtree(10k) and 4 marathons but other than that I have no clue. I have no more room for T-shirts.  |
