Meet: @morbid2marathon Two years ago I was at the lowest point in my life, I was closing in on 500 pounds and had no direction in life. Then I met the love of my life, my now wife, gave me a reason to get my life in order. While some may not approve, I had bariatric surgery to help me with my struggles, and after about 100 pounds list I felt more capable and more confident in my own skin. I started working out a lot, and at the advice of friend and cardiologist, I began doing the local 5k at the lake. Over several months it got easier and easier. I began doing more miles, and before I knew it I signed up for the runDisney Wine & Dine Half last November. And then just last week I did the full weekend Star Wars Challenge, and PR’d my Half Marathon by 20 minutes! Now my next goal is to do a full marathon, so I’ll be doing the Dopey Challenge at runDisney in January. Starting tip: If anyone out there doubts themselves, don’t. Take control of your life by any means necessary, and get out there and LIVE!! . . 👉 Wlstories is a SUPPORT GROUP.
