A Clydesdale's Tale: or How a Big Guy Trained For and Ran the Vermont 100

I underwent a great transformation in four short years. I went from being obese to being slightly less obese. Hmm. Maybe that is not the best way to describe my journey. Instead, let me say it this way: I went from a ½ mile training run to finishing a 100 mile trail race in only 4.5 years. Yes, that sounds better. How did I do it? Why would I want to? When did all of this occur? What were the methods used therein? Where are the fun and fact-filled tips and Who can benefit from them? The answers are to be found inside, if you chance to look for them.NEW UPDATED VERSION! (Sorry for yelling). Many, if not all of the little nagging errors have been corrected, and now I can finally sleep at night, untroubled by proofreading woes. Ah, sweet closure, how I do love thee.
