One day I won’t be able to wake up on Thanksgiving morning and run 13.1 miles. Today was not that day.
Grateful for legs that can run and sisterfriends to join me. (And a husband who called me on mile 8 to give an update on my collard greens.)
Happy Thanksgiving, y’all.🍁🥬👍🏽

I was kind of hoping my water would break (@ 39 wks) during this press conference to emphasize the importance of child health… it did not. Regardless, it’s critical that the #Senate pass #BuildBackBetter to extend to advanced & enhanced #ChildTaxCredit. Thank you @SenMarkey!

To quote my little sis @LashNolen:
“Move in love.”
Don’t give up, y’all. And never underestimate the power of the slow yes and the impact of time over time.
Keep asking with love. And make sure people know.
Okay?
