So many remarkable runners!

The music director for the Central City Opera plans to run the Colfax Half Marathon Sunday after making a life changing decision to go from husky to thin.

John Baril, 46, has conducted more than 100 performances in his 16 years with the opera.

But over the last 18 months, he's achieved something that is perhaps more impressive.

"I've lost about 62 ponds now," Baril said.
