Jess Runs Happy

In 2004, I weighed nearly 300 pounds and suffered from debilitating anxiety, depression, and obsessive compulsive disorder. My mother being diagnosed with breast cancer was the wake-up call I needed to turn things around, and over the next six years, I lost more than 100 pounds through sensible eating and being more active.

Today, I'm a marathon runner and triathlete, and I'm loving where this running thing has taken me. Social media and blogging have connected me to thousands of other folks like me, but storytelling has aways been my passion. So I started this channel to deepen that connection and have some fun along the way.

I'm glad you found me - and I hope you enjoy the ride!
