I am a social worker in his early 40s. I am the father of two young children. I am a runner and have run several half marathons. I am planning to run a full marathon in the next couple of years, but I am waiting for the kids to get a little older and a few other commitments to go away before I make this major commitment.

Three years ago, just after the birth of my second child, I came to realization that I had to get control over my weight. There was a Weight Watchers group at my office so I decided to go there to loose a few pounds. The first time I stepped on the scale (something I had not done in years) I was shocked to see it hit 215 lbs. I knew than that I had to loose more than a few pounds and I got to work. I radically changed my diet and in about a month from starting loosing weight, I began walking and running to increase my activity. Three months later I was able to run 30 minutes with out stopping. I than set a goal for myself to run a half marathon for my 40th birthday which was about six months away. I joined a gym and started resistance training and trained for the race. Long story short, by the time I reached my 40th birthday I had dropped 40 lbs. and a week and a half later I ran my first half marathon.
I continued at the gym and continued running and my level of fitness increased and I got to be a stronger runner. However, I was not happy with the way my body looked. I could not get much muscle definition and while I kept going to the gym, I didn't enjoy it much.
Than I discovered P90X. I have been working away at it and have had some great success and am seeing my body transform to where I would like it.
It is a work in progress, but I am really enjoying it.
