Hope you are all wearing your red to show your support for Women’s Heart Health, below is a great article with information.
As some of you know I lost my mother & sisters to heart disease so my chances of having heart disease are high. I started my Pink Turtle Movement & Health Journey 8 years ago because I knew I had to make a change with my health. I walked my first half marathon May 25th, 2012, my mother passed away February 24th, 2012, I had already been training and some thought I was not going to continue on to do the marathon because of my mother’s passing, but no, it was more of a reason to do it. I dedicated that half marathon to her and I knew she was by my side the entire way. Every time I wanted to stop, I could hear her say “keep going”. It has been a struggle with weight going up & down but as long as I work out I will keep my heart pumping and going strong, I love working out and there is no quit in me. I’m so blessed to have all of you who have joined me on my journey as you started your own. Let’s keep the movement going and continue on a healthy path.
