Born-Again Runner
Backgrounder, dated January 9, 2004: I'm in my 62nd year, having carried 242 to 246 pounds on my 6'1-1/2" frame for too many years. My high-school weight was 176, so I could drop up to 70 pounds, if I could. Today, I ran for the first time in years, almost three minutes--twice! I've been born again. Alleluia!

GYM 20 MINUTES

I may have found a running hero. Here's how Ultraclyde introduces himself on his blog:

In 2001, I was 290 lbs. Since then I've lost a bunch of weight and completed 1 marathon and 3 ultras. My results have been ok given my size (200-215 lbs) but now I want to be FAST! My starting-over weight on Sep. 6, 2005 was 222.5 lbs. I am calling this my "Boston diet", because my goal is to lose weight and qualify for the Boston Marathon. My goal weight is 165 lbs. The qualifying time for 'male 18-34' is 3h 10m. I hope to qualify at the Vancouver Marathon on May 7, 2006. --ULTRACLYDE
