I’m Beej, and I’m a running-obsessed mega-geek from Alabama. Since 2010, I’ve lost over 150 pounds, and despite falling in love with fitness, I'm still the same Star Wars-loving geek I was.

Which may mean it's 24 weeks now. I don't know. It's 6 months away, or as Siri tells me... 5.52 months. And now...I have to start training. Let's dig in on why I ma…
