From Major Side Ache to Major Accomplishment

I want to brag about my accomplishment in running for a brief moment. After starting a year ago: I have ran over 100 miles, burned over 11000 calories, lost eight pounds and have done the six miles today that I wanted to obtain before the 10k Turkey Trot in November. A year ago (for those who witnessed) I didn't even want to hit the pavement and I suffocated with major side aches when I did a short distance. If you set your heart to something and work hard enough for it, you can accomplish it.
