Sarah Gallegos’ doctors told her it was time to lose about 40 lbs. So she did a little better. She lost 120! Along the way, she started running. At first, it was just to that lightpost over there. And then maybe two lightposts. Before she knew it she was running 5k’s, and 10k’s and half-marathons!

She started The Shrinking Taco – which is both her nickname and a facebook page where people can track her journey. Most recently, this journey now includes finishing her first full marathon!!! (And in the pouring rain, no less.) She’s got a fantastic sense of humor and many more goals to accomplish in the future, including the Honolulu Marathon and possibly a 50k ultra!
