The Journey...

I started this blog in 2010 under the title "The Fat to Fit Chronicles" to document the training for and completion of my very first half-marathon. My decision to train was the first step on my journey from fat to fit. In my former life I was 319 lbs, depressed, and living a "less than" life.

Over the course of training I discovered a passion for fitness and helping others. So this blog has morphed into something more than just my musings and venting. My hope is that when you leave this blog you have learned something or picked up something valuable to aide you along your own journey.

So mount up, Posse, and let's go from Fat to Fit!!

Kudos for me? (blushing)

I received the email below after sharing my story on the Global Corporate Challenge website. My company is participating in the GCC this year and it is what inspired me to be conscious of my movement. My story also had comments posted from people all over the world. Is that not awesome?? How can I stop now?

"Hi Jenita -
Thanks ever so much for sharing your incredible story on the GCC Community page and CONGRATULATIONS on an outstanding effort!!!

You personify the essence of the GCC and an inspiration to your family, team mates, co-workers and the entire GCC Crew.

In fact, your story totally made our day! As a small token of our appreciation and in recognition of your amazing commitment, we would like to send you a GCC T-shirt and cap. Please let me know what size and where to address it and I will make the necessary arrangements accordingly.

With your permission, we would like to use your story as a case study. We always welcome written testimonials, photos and videos from participants around the globe who have experienced the benefits of the GCC first hand. We’d love you to wear the GCC cap at your Half Marathon and would be thrilled to include something from you if you are able to provide it.

Please let me know if you have any questions or wish to discuss details."

With best wishes,
