My Next Changes

Over the last six years, I have made many changes in my life. I started out as an extremely obese man.

Changes became a part of life for me. I had to change my life before I died at an early age. I started out by changing my eating habits. The one thing I learned about this process is that change is good. During those years, I’ve had to eliminate processed foods. No more white bread, rice or those other goodies that you yearn for. I made my own bread out of whole grains. I ate brown rice. I avoided potatoes and white pasta. I hated that because I loved spaghetti. I’ve lost quite a bit of weight,275lbs, over the past 6 years. I decided to make another change to my diet. I will be using the Primal Living diet.

As to the dreaded exercise, I started out barely able to play with my granddaughter in the park. As of today, I have completely several half marathons, marathons and started an Ironman Triathlon. Tomorrow I run the sixth anniversary of my first race. It was the 5km Firecracker race. The first time I finished last. The key thing is that I finished. I remember dunking my head in the ice barrel. I have now stepped in the realm of ultramarathoner. On June 10^th, 2012, I will be running 250 km in the Gobi Desert over 7 days.
