About Me:

I have been a weight watcher member for over a year now and it was the best thing. I was introduce to weight watcher by a good friend a personal trainer. During this period I started walking at my job and I started running with a co-worker on Saturdays. One time we ran and he said we just ran a 5K. I did not know what that was, he told me we just run 3.2 miles. I said to myself..this was not to bad..I was hook. So I ran in my first 5K in Dec 2006. I was great and nerves at the same time. I then went to do the Long Beach Half in 2007. I felt if I can do the half I can do a full Marathon so I registered for the LA Marathon this year and I completed. One of the greatest feelings I ever had in my life. I will never forget it. I read that joining a group for training is a great idea to meet other runners and learn new techniques. The book I read was right. I'm having a great time with Sole Runners.
