first Race completed -5k Run to Save an orphan

October 11 - Sunday at 8:30 am I completed the run in 45mins---Hurray!
Here are the pictures from the first Fit4FOADAC project - the Long Beach Marathon in which I ran the 5k race and my 9yr old daughter finished the 1mile kid's fun race! I want to especially thank the first sponsors - Melissa Nambangi, Nicoline Ambe-Ndiforchu, Anita Balinga-Etta, Kelly Goon, Denise Beadle and Adeline Chia-Viyuoh for the initial boost that took me from walking to running...Thank you for your generous donations. And to my greatest cheerleaders - my siblings and my Mom - 'njika njamu'.
Enjoy the pictures and click here to see the 4seconds finish line euphoria:
Thank you all again for your time and visit us often to see how your donations are making a difference in Africa.

How can I help a child in need?

I was thinking of starting a walk to raise funds and awareness for the orphans of FOADAC and came about blogging my walk progress. Then it occurred to me that the walk does not have to be just an event but a way of life as I have been struggling with my weight since giving birth to my beautiful Nina and Bryce.
The other day I asked my fitness-trainer baby sister, Nabila to spear-head the project for me...
My vision is to stay fit and recruit many friends and family to join any fitness program of their choice that will not only benefit their health but raise some very needed funds to feed the orphans, cloth and educate them.
Walkers, runners, cyclists, bikers or lovers of any form of exercise and fitness are welcome to enroll, all we need is your zeal to stay fit for an honorable cause.
