Ragnar Relay

Wow! It’s been awhile since I’ve posted something… Crazy where life can take you, right? Well, I’m sure you’re just dying to know what’s been happening in the wild world of Nick Pensari. You must want to delve deep into the abyss of my cranium. Pick the jewels of… I don’t know where I’m going with this. I must work on my ego, I feel as if I’ve lost all sense of reality and gone off the deep end. Power does that to you, I guess. (I hope you know I’m completely kidding. I’m not that awful…)

Back to the post, shall we? I kid you not, I always end up side tracking and just rambling on… my Achilles heel so they say. It’s whatever, my blog. I make the rules. But how about we get serious. Some updates on my life should be a good start. June 1^st, 2012 I weighed almost 340 pounds. Crazy right? It was the heaviest I’ve been. I don’t plan on ever going back to that weight. Ever. Currently I weigh 290. 50 pounds so far! It’s crazy how far I’ve come and am continuing to go. My goal is to be 250 by March so I can look damn good for Prom and eventually get to 200 by next October. Who knows where life will take me next, but I love every minute of it!

I ran my first 5k in early September. I felt so good. So proud of myself. I felt unstoppable. I had the world in my hand and was ready to go kick some ass. I kept talking about how I wanted to continue running races, but I kept placing it on the backburner. Life kept getting in the way, ya know, the typical excuses. It was lame, I know. Well, I finally put my foot down and decided to run Ragnar. I found a few connections and was able to join on a team.

Let me begin by saying that Ragnar was the greatest experience of my life so far. It was a life changing time. I walked away with a few good friendships and a weekend full of unforgettable memories. It was amazing. I can’t even begin to serve it justice with my lame words. If I could leave you with one thing of advice: If you have a chance to run it, do it! Don’t push it aside and wait for a better chance. Take that chance now and make amazing things happen! Seriously! DO IT!

Well, I know this was short but that’s all I really have right now. Sorry for waiting so long to post something, but I hope this post has wet your pallet for more things to come! Remember that Life is Good! (Wow, haven’t said that in awhile. Feels so damn good.)
