How I did it
It made me
Elated 
How I did it: I was just at the zoo to enjoy life and celebrate my drug free anniversary. I didn't know they let you feed the giraffes. So I just stood in line and fed a giraffe. Read how I did it…
It made me
Awesome
How I did it: My first marathon I joined a training group. We learned how to run using the Jeff Galloway method. It's a run/walk. Depending on your skill level at running, you fall into different groups. For example, my group fell right in the middle.

So we would run three, walk one.Our first training session we started out at three mil… Read how I did it…

Update
12 months ago
I’ve been lacks in writing an update because it was terribly emotional for me, but I’ve come to terms with everything and looking towards the future.
My orthopedic doctor called me a week later and told me NO RUNNING—EVER! That my bones were too close together and there was a growth on the top of my foot.
I feel like he’s placing his own feelings regarding running onto me. I won’t be his monkey. I’ve decided to try and find a different doctor who will appreciate my need to run who can give me a second opinion. So until then, and also until 2010, I’m not going to worry about the fact that I can’t run currently.
