Fresh Out of Excuses

OK, Like it our not, tomorrow is here. I've been dreading it. I've been putting it off as long as I possibly could - but there is no denying that the tomorrow I have been waiting for has finally arrived. I am fresh out of excuses.

This Thursday marks exactly thirteen weeks until my 51st birthday. That is 91 days to be exact.
I tipped the scales today (Sunday 7/20) at a portly 244.8 lbs. That is exactly 24.8 lbs. heavier than back when I was fat.

So here we go....

I have a strategy but I won't bore you with it. I have some modest fairly realistic goals, some of which I will tell you about, some of which I will not. (I don't want to embarrass myself unnecessarily) I will however, to keep me honest and motivated, share my progress with you along the way.


One goal is to run 100 miles in 91 days. That is only one mile per day with a few extras thrown in here and there. Lynetta has already far pasted that mark.

So along side my usual boring little stories, for the next 13 weeks, you will see this fraction which represents my current weight / and my total miles ran.

244.8 / 0

It's going to be a long 13 weeks.. Please pray for my family. I tend to get grouchy when I'm hungry.
