But most importantly, I was VERY unhappy. I was known as the "fat friend". Eventually I got tired of living for OTHER people, and decided to live FOR MY SELF.
I joined spark, and I love it here. I have gained confidence and a sense of self. I have challenged myself in ways I never thought I would and have done things I NEVER thought I would do.
I've run 2 half marathons, and ran my FIRST MARATHON back in Feb, will be completing my second marathon in October, another half in December in Vegas and the marathon again in Feb... I was the girl that COULDNT EVEN RUN A MILE.
I've gone paddleboarding and worn a bikini in public.
I've started working with a trainer and LOVE IT and beg to be pushed to my limit.
