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.
