Sheena's Big Chop!!!

Hi Beauties!
Ok, so I told you that a lot has happened since my last posts, so I have lots of random updates… First and most importantly, my roommate/cousin Sheena decided to go natural. Rather, her hair decided that it didn’t want to be processed anymore… she got fed up with her hair thinning and breaking off and decided to go au naturale. So here are the before and after pics… they were taken in June, and she is now in the process of starting dreadlocks BUT I just wanted to show yall the beginning of my beautiful cousin’s journey!

OMG a 1/2 MARATHON???!!!

OK Ladies,

I’m back. Much has happened, but too much to catch you all up on at once ;)

But I DO have an update for you... my wonderful roommates have convinced me to train for a half-marathon.. YEP I said it... A HALF MARATHON. That’s about 13.1 miles.

OK with all of that said and done... we started training the day after Thanksgiving. We ran 3 miles. Now let me tell all you Beauties, it was ROUGH. One of my roommates is SKINNY; the other has an athletic build. My best friend MoJo, as you all know, is a personal trainer. From the age of 8 years old until I was about 22 years old I was an athlete. Basketball, volleyball, and I was a member of Georgia Southern University's Track & Field team for a little over a year. But since then I have been packing on unnecessary pounds!!! So I think this .5 Marathon will help me lose some weight, and get healthy.

Sheena told me that I need to set a goal or two so this is what I have come up with:

Goals:
DROP SOME LBs! (Obviously)
Loose some of these boobs!
A healthier lifestyle
INSPIRE!!!

So what about you?
Have you ever ran a race? (Marathon, .5 marathon, 5k, 10k ect.)

Help me out!!! Do you have any suggested goals I should set? If so...LET ME KNOW ;)

Love you guys!
