Alfred Day 90 Posted January 31, 2017 Great job! I had surgery on Nov. 30 and have registered for the runDisney 10k at Disneyland on September 2. If that goes well, I may have to consider registering for the Star Wars Half Marathon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OneDollarBill 371 Posted February 1, 2017 Congratulations!!! So can you tell us how and when you started exercising to get to this point? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App My surgery was on March 11, 2015. I started "exercising" aka walking 3 days after surgery. I joined a local 24hr Fitness and went every night and started walking on a treadmill sometimes only 10/15 mins. I just kept doing it. I set a goal to do a 5K and chose the Disney Avengers 5K in November. Originally my goal was just to finish and maintain the 16 min per mile "required" pace. However by race day I was maintaining a 14 min pace. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The 10K courses are a lot better now and you will be in the park 75% of the race. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
