Help Christopher raise money

For participating in Houston Half Marathon & 10K

My Story…

I started running to help with weight loss. I was in terrible shape when I started. At first I could only jog from one telephone pole to the next and I would be gassed. So I would walk two poles and try again. I kept doing this until I could cover a mile. Then I started jogging two poles, three etc. It took a while but eventually I could jog a slow mile and I just slowly added distance over time. It didn’t really help much with weight loss, but, it was great for my overall health and well-being so I kept at it.  

 A little less than a year ago, I started watching my diet and I think because I was already jogging 2 to 5 miles several days a week, my weight started to drop. Now I am down over 100 lbs and training with Kingwood Fit for the Houston Marathon in January.  This Houston Half should be a good test.  I wonder how many telephone poles it will be. 

I hope you will join me and donate to one of the many worthy charities (like Breakthrough Houston) involved with this race. You may never know how your one small act of kindness impacts someone in need, but, you will be blessed.
