If you are looking for inspiration, look here

Last month's Runner's World was devoted to common readers who have done uncommon things.  Among the runners featured were ex-cons and cancer survivors.  My favorite story featured Ben Davis.  Ben lost 120+ lbs through diet and exercise.  He has completed multiple marathons and triathlons and shares his story with others struggling with obesity and depression.

He made a video scrapbook of his transformation that became a YouTube sensation, and he continues to chronicle his journey on his blog.  I've included links to both.
