BAck in '98 I trained all year for the NYC marathon... serious milage and way serious weight work in gym. The day I started I weighed 145. The day I finished the marathon, 143.

Same in 2000 when training for Boston-NYC Aidsride... only then I didn't shed a single pound.

BUT I had great definition!

No worries! The thing that matters most is how you feel. Don't get hung up on the number on the scale. And most importantly, have fun!
