I ran my first race on Saturday.. and if no one else is proud of me. Ia m.. Can you imagine.. my fat ass running! ok that wasn't very nice.. but.. I'm also not as big as when I started. You know it's change when friends start coming up to asking if your losing weight or Screaming.. Oh MY God are you okay.. Are you sick.. you look thinner..
Then a girl like me can smile and say.. no darling.. I've been running. I'm training for the 10 k.. and i am VERY proud of myself.. everyone keeps asking if i was running the whole thing.. and i tried.. i really did.. But i finished in less than an hour and a half.. beating my own time from a few weeks before.. If this is not life changing.. i think it is.. I could hardly run a mile before. which is why I was doing the 10k. I signed up to run a mile with my friend simone last November in the Marathon.. I could barely make the mile.. she challenged me to do the 10k.. and bright and early saturday morning.. I did it.. And i am happy. :)
My new "friend" came out to support me.. and that is love.. not even my mom came out to support me in my first race.. but this genuinely sweet man who adores the mess out of me.. came to support me.. I love that.. I guess this one might be a keeper ;)
but i know i haven't written in a while.. I've been busy doing nothing.
other good news..
My girl BLUNT is the author of Betrayal of a Hustler.. an intriguing and engaging love story/drama.. and she is doing an AudioBook.. Moi.. is the lead female LISA! so you know all you people can read.. go out and get the book. Support an enterprising black woman and enrich your reading life!
that's all for now kids.. gotta go work out.. it's a brand new day ;)

Congrats on your first run J. That is really awesome. I am so very proud of you. I don't know how you made the time for it with everything else that you have going on, but that just goes to show once again "you're an amazing sista". Keep setting the bar for the rest of us. From Germany
