Hitting the Asphalt with BGR!

This morning, I got out and 'wunned' 5 miles (abt 1:13:00, abt 14.6/min, 774) on the park trail with a great group of ladies in my hometown - Black Girls Run (http://www.blackgirlsrun.com/). 

While some people may feel intimidated (or even uncomfortable), you shouldn't.  Health and wellness particularly in the African American community is at a serious state in this country - obesity, diabetes, and heart disease alone are at disproportionately high rates among African American women.  I hope people outside can appreciate the motivation behind the movement.  I truly admire BGR creators Ashley Hicks and Toni Carey for being such visionaries.  Many similar health-conscious movements ( have sprung up since, which can only benefit our community.

Let's keep PRESERVING THE SEXY!
