Forums >Look What I Can Do!>Before and NOW pictures!
First time posting on the forums here, but I'm a lurker.. I've so totally enjoyed reading through this entire thread - being inspired by everyone's transformations.
Mine is more of an in-progress, since I've still got quite a ways to go!
Before: 253 (taken March 2010)
Here: Modeling the shirt I bought myself at 40 lbs down. (I'm at 48 lbs down now and looking forward to my first 5K on May 15)
I figure I need to lose another 60 some lbs to get to goal, but I will get there eventually!
Consistently Slow
WTG. Keep running and the pounds will keep falling.
Run until the trail runs out.

The pain that hurts the worse is the imagined pain. One of the most difficult arts of racing is learning to ignore the imagined pain and just live with the present pain (which is always bearable.) - Jeff

This is fantastic .. half my admiration is for you wanting to do something seriously about your fitness and your weight and the other half is for actually getting out there and doing it.
I have seen my fair share of folks who keep cribbing about how they are putting on weight but refuse to either change their lifestyle or put in added effort to offset it.
Keep it up !!!
I dont sweat. I ooze liquid awesome.
@tlday13 - keep up the great work! Your progress is impressive.
Thanks! Couldn't figure out how to do that. Granted, I didn't take all that much time looking. Most of the comments I got on that one centered on the bib number... of course.

1 ultra + 3 marathons in 14 days. With the back to back I managed to get 30 minutes of sleep. 1st goal Saturday was to finish. 2nd goal not to be last.Goals meet. 1st time I did not fall on a trail race.
Way to go RC!
