Success Story with Jamie Tizzard: How Running Can Change Your Life
In this podcast episode we speak with Jamie Tizzard -a mother of two from southern California who has been completing our virtual run challenges.
In 2020 she found herself scrolling through Facebook and responded to an ad for the 100 Mile Challenge.
It was the push she needed to get off the couch, become a runner, drop 75 pounds, and start running in-person races.
Jamie now runs 6 miles 5 times per week and has improved her running pace from a 15 minute mile to a 9:30 minute mile. She finished the Orange County Half Marathon in 2:05:07!
How Running Can Change Your Life
Jamie posted this in the SDR Facebook group,
“My weight loss journey started with seeing a post for the 100 mile challenge. I started at 230 a year and a half ago today I’m at 155 . Thank you for all the running motivation!” -Jamie T.
