I am living proof that anything is possible. When your fear and doubt kicks in, when that mean person inside your head tells you it’s impossible or you won’t ever do it, DON’T LISTEN!! You can do it. Whatever it is, whatever you want to accomplish, just get out and try. Doubt and fear kill more dreams than failure ever could. I truly believed running a 5k was impossible for me. At one point, I believed I couldn’t run 7 minutes straight. Here I am in my forties and at my heaviest weight ever, and I’ve run over 14 5Ks and one 10K since O started the couch to 5k program over a year and a half ago. I’m not the fastest, but I never quit. I believe in you. Now go out there and cross your finish line!!❤️💪🏻👊🏼#chubbyrunner #wogging #onefootinfrontoftheother #cantquitwontquit #dontquit #yesyoucan #noanxietytoday #scrapthestigma #fightingtobefearless #neverquit #beyourepic #live #laugh #love #fight #believe #havefaithinyourself

Back out there in the sunshine and heat. I'm doing 1 mile before work and shooting for longer runs on the weekends. Shooting for a PR at the Craft Classic in October if my knee and feet hold up. If I walk the whole thing, I'll make it the best walk ever!! My sole goal is always just to give it my best and cross that finish line.❤️Remember, forward is forward! #dontquitwontquit #noanxietytoday #fight #fightingtobefearless #fightingtobefit #wogging #chubbyrunner #walkingrocks #slowbutsteady #forwardisforward #justdoit #justtry #nevergiveup #neverquit

Half marathon number 3

This Sunday will be my 3rd half marathon in a time span of 2 months and 2 days. Last year at this time I had a very hard time pushing out a 3 miles and here I am about to run my third 13.1mile race. I'll be first to say I'm not the skinniest of guys, I'm not the most in shape of guys, and I'm not the fastest of guys. I'll be first to admit I do not run the entire thing non-stop I do a run walk method. None of that matters though. I have learned no one cares how much I weigh out there or how frightening I look when I wear tri shorts in a triathlon. No one cares how slow I am. All they care is I am out there. What matters is I'm out there and I'm doing it. What matters is I have put in the time and I have over come many obstacles to get here. Doing something new and different is scary. The first time you step foot into a gym as you start to train, or the first time you get to the start line for a new distance or new event can be so overwhelming. The end result though is always the same if you give it 110% at the end your gonna feel like your on top of the world. You will feel amazing and that's what is important. There are small things and comments people have said to me over the last year that really stick with me and small bits of advice that has really made a difference. So in closing during a 33 mile bike ride last year someone told me "if it was easy everyone would do it." That has stuck with me for a long time and when things get rough that's what I remember. It's not your speed that matters, it's not your looks that matter, it's not how gracefully you appear while you do it. What matters is you get out there and you try. Have a great day my friends enjoy the beautiful weekend.

It's probably no surprise to anyone that I suffered from an eating disorder due to having Anxiety Disorder. I have struggled with my weight for almost my entire life. I've joined some support groups on Facebook and it hurts me when I see people bashing themselves for eating something. I am big but I am healthy! Love yourself and strive for a healthy life, not a size!! The external doesn't always reflect the enternal. Let's start a movement for healthy lives at any size!! Who's with me? #healthylivesatanysize #bodyproud #yourbody #itsyourlife #yourraceyourpace #bepositive #fightingtobefearless #chubbyrunner #live#laugh#loveyourself
