Pure awesomeness. You can do it.
Congrats and keep it up! It makes me all nostalgic for walks around Northfield. And a big Tra-La back at you.
You're doing great! For some inspiration:
My trainer when I was becoming a dog trainer use to be overweight. Her weight caused her to need two knee surgeries (one on each knee). When she decided to lose the weight she started running, but her knees made it very difficult. It's taken her 5 years, but she just ran her first half marathon.
If she can do it, you can too! Keep up the good work!!!!
This is awesome, Liz. Keep it up! :)
I'm so proud of you, lovely lady.
