I publish everything. I seperated from the AF in 2006 and stopped smoking in 2009 and put on 40 - 50 pounds on a body that was already 15 pounds overweight. I decided in 2010 to start running and got an App that puts it on my facebook page and let everyone see what I was doing. When I don't exercise I get questions from my friends and family as to why. I also think when I'm running that I need to do better and faster because everyone will see when I'm slacking. On the flip side I get a ton of encouraging comments and likes.

For goals I have signed up to a relay race in June that will have 12 of us running 220 miles in 24 hours. Every month I have a race to run that helps keep me motivated also.

So far I've lost 24 pounds
