My background

 🏃‍♂️ Taking the first step is tough, but regaining that momentum can be even tougher. 🚀

Hey there, I'm Dan, the face behind Spare Tire Running. What began in 2013 as a group of friends running races has transformed into a personal journey shared with you all. Through platforms like our website, Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, and Twitter, I'm here to tell my story. So, where to start?

My journey traces back to my freshman year when I joined the Cross Country Team on a friend's dare. An athlete since childhood, I was short and lightweight, but spirited. Through high school, I balanced running with wrestling, my true passion. College saw me pursuing wrestling, putting running on hold. Life took its turns, I got older, gained weight, and started a family. From graduating high school at 125lbs to hitting my heaviest at 280lbs, my weight has fluctuated.

Being a Big Runner isn't easy; it's a struggle few understand. I aspire to change perceptions, and I've come to understand I can't do it alone. That's where you come in. By becoming a Patreon member, even with a $1 contribution, you're not just supporting me financially; you're helping save my life. You're motivating me to push beyond my limits and lead a healthier life for my kids.

The funds from your support will fuel the Spare Tire Mentality of "Every Step Counts." Thank you for your decision to stand by me. You're giving me the chance to prove that anyone can change and that every step, no matter how challenging, truly counts. 🙏 Run faster Couch to 5K
