Default Anyone here run?

I used to run a lot years ago. I had to stop while going through a custody battle for my kids about 10 years back. The change in shifts and lifestyle at that time=I didn't have a minute to spare.
After quitting chewing tobacco last year I went from an already fat 215lbs. to 235lbs. I was so uncomfortable at 235lbs. I felt like I got winded bending over to tie my shoes!I never really cared how I LOOKED,but FEELING fat was the last straw. I started running again about 5-6 weeks ago. I feel better than I have in years I must say. Just trying to build up slowly to keep my knees/feet happy.
I'm a LONG ways off of the 160 lbs. a was 10 years ago,and have a long way to go before I can think about running any timed races,but I'm making progress.
Anybody else here run?
