I weighed 278 lbs in July of 2011 and was pre diabetic. Now I'm an 180 lb. runner. People ask me why I run. I have lots of motivations, but my reply is usually, "You don't see many serious runners who are overweight". I now run 6 days a week for an average of 50 miles . I am a serious Christian. I have a lovely wife and great kids. TJ is my running partner and RS runs with us also. I ran my first marathon in September 2013 with TJ March 2013 I made my new goal to qualify for the Boston Marathon, therefore I changed my blog URL to 278toBoston.com. This is my journey to (hopefully one day) Boston. View all posts by 278toBoston
