Okay, so I totally thought Twitter would be the most useless tool I could ever use, but it has put the community of Cystic Fibrosis supporters right at my fingertips...I follow their tweets about new and interesting CF-related stories and they follow mine (which I am trying to make more positive and less "Ugh, I'm a fattyboombalatty and I'm never going to be a runner").
During my tweet searching, I ran across the most fascinating person. He is my age. He is training for a half-marathon. He loves his girlfriend and his dog. He has an amazing sense of humor and positive attitude. He is upbeat about any and all of his training progress (which I am also working on). His name is Ronnie and he has CF.
He and his girlfriend have created a website/blog to honestly talk about his life and what it's like on a daily basis...the good, the bad, and everything in between. I find it fascinating (and humorous, as they also post videos of themselves singing karaoke in the car with the dog chillaxing in the back seat).
Check it out...what an inspiration!!! http://runsickboyrun.com/
