There are a lot of things I hope to
accomplish and being HIV positive not only pushes me harder but makes me open
to new things and possibilities. I love
a challenge and I almost thrive on them.
In February some of my friends were talking about us doing the Rebel
Race. I had no idea what it was so I
googled it. I watched a video of people
running up steep hills. Doing low crawls through mud, jumping through hurdles,
etc. There were all sorts of obstacle
courses and so I e-mail my close friends and we decided to run it.
So on June 7th, 2012 we
all decided to drive to 4101 Stansbury Mill Rd Monkton, Maryland 21111, which
is where the Rebel Race is. We started
the race at the same time but finished at different time but ALL IN ALL WE DID
IT TOGETHER!!! My husband and other
spouses sat in support and shouted as we ran across the finish line. It was amazing to see my baby at the finish
line waiting for me. Be HIV positive
doesn’t mean that you cannot do things that you’ve had your heart set on. You have to stay focused and believe in
yourself. Do NOT let HIV dictate who you
are or what you cannot do. If there is
anyone out there that say you cannot do something because you are HIV positive
then you tell them that there isn’t anything you cannot do. Here is a Before and After PIC:
