Run Fat Boy Run

I stand in my living room and look at the picture of me crossing the finish line at the Ottawa Marathon a short year ago. I stand there for a long time. Not because I like to look at myself, I really don't. But I stand there and wonder, how did I let this happen?

Only a year ago, I was in such good shape I could complete a marathon and now .... dear god, please don't go there. Even after the marathon, I continued to stay in shape with CrossFit. But now, nothing. No running, no CrossFit, no sit ups, nothing. Until today.

I take one last look at the photo, go upstairs, get my running gear on and head out for a 30 minute run.

Bring the pain.
