Today is such a special day! A year ago today, I got up the nerve to tell my story of weight and fitness struggles to the world. I made the conscious decision when I started Running On Heavy to not sugar-coat anything I shared and to put my embarrassments aside. I thought perhaps my posts could be a beacon of positivity in a world that tells us that being heavy means we are lazy, sedentary, ineffective and hopeless. I like to think that my blog has succeeded in being that to all of it's readers.What I have received in return as a result of putting myself out there has been immeasurable. My little blog has taken me on an amazing journey and has brought me to an exciting new place in my life. Thank you all for your continued support, words of encouragement, and for helping me to do what I love most. I am forever grateful.
I look forward to many more adventure-filled years with you guys!
Hugs to you all!
