Feel Good Story of the Week! This is a great story about a guy who was severely overweight who began to get fit by taking cyclo-cross biking. Not only is it fantastic to hear about someone turning their life around, but the takeaway (to me) was that having a strong support network matters! You can accomplish so much more than you think you can when you have a supportive community behind you. (hint hint: so bring a friend today!)
