When I ran the Peterborough Half Marathon 3 and a bit weeks ago, I weighed in at 198lbs (I'm 5'11").
I realized that's way too heavy for the 30k race in Hamilton I'll be participating in (March 27), so I decided to eat less (I was eating like a pig before). I've lost 14lbs, down to 184. Makes running so so much easier.
I've ran 32km in the last couple days, but the training is winding down now so that my body can start to rest and heal for the race. Pretty excited about it. I only started running mid-summer last year, have done two 21k's and one 10k, this'll be my longest distance I've ever ran.
