For most people, running a Half Marathon is viewed as impossible. So how about running 100 Half Marathons!? In their early 30's Craig & Bobbi knew that they needed to get more focused on their fitness, so with some Christmas money they had received, they bought a treadmill to help them get active. Within 6 months they both ran their first half marathon and then set a goal to run 50 as a couple before they turned 50. After exceeding their goal well ahead of schedule, they set their sights on 100 and are now just a handful of races away from this legendary goal. You won't find a more humble yet motivating couple anywhere, so sit back and prepare to get moved and motivated by this power couple!
Just a few years ago, Kevin stepped on the scale and weighed in at 270 pounds. Determined to make a significant change in his life he turned to the treadmill and has since gone on to run Ultra Marathons, OCR's and is now set on getting to the Boston Marathon. If you're looking to get fired up and motivated by someone that is the poster child for transformation, this is the episode for you!
