Started running in 2016 as a form of therapy or just to keep my mind busy, my me time, my first Marathon event was in 2017 I went to cheer for my coach and I got inspired from seeing all that people running

With prosthetic legs , blind people, elderly people ,  it made me feel so embarrassed because I am healthy thank God and I was just standing there, so I said to myself that the next year I would be running with them,  and I did ,therefore I haven't missed those events and I found myself wanting to run the LA Marathon which I did  for the second time, so I go back home every chance I have, I'm on my 7th Marathon 

3 Chevron 

 2 woodlands and 

2 LA Marathon 

And I hope to keep making my list bigger.
