Hello everyone! Check out the NY Daily News today. There's a great article by Joanna Molloy about my website and my challenge of beating ryan reynolds.

I met with Joanna and Craig (the photographer) on Tuesday, August 4th for a 30 minute interview and then we took photos and a video for about 40 minutes. It was great to be able to tell me story about the website and my raising money for Parkinson's.
Now that this is out, I will be training harder than ever as the article said..."I've called him (Ryan) out on this. So I have to do it". We'll see how I do this weekend at the NYC Half Marathon. I feel great and I am lighter than ever while training for a marathon. Weight is at 204 right now. I'll have to get down to 190 to 195 for the marathon. That'll make the run a lot easier. Every pound you lose is close to a minute off of your final marathon time. Plus every pound is 4 pounds on your knees...add it up...it's tough being a "bigger" runner. When I ran my first marathon, I weighed 235 lbs...that's when I lived in Pittsburgh and ate...well..pretty much everything.
Ok, gotta get ready for work. Tim
