We survive and we can change…
The sun is rising over the Atlantic ocean, a nice breeze blows as I run along the coast, pushing myself further and further each time out. In the beginning I could hardly make it a mile, that was then (April 25th), now its 4 miles twice per week. Why do I do it? Is it for the cardio? Is it for the enjoyment? No, you all know I hate cardio and running… well thats something criminals do to get away from the cops. I run because I find a peace in it. Every morning I awake or get off work and all I can do is think about my new life but what it had cost me, seeing my children every day. When I train I think of them and how I miss them. This has proven to be a far better means of motivation than all the anger that once pushed me. Im bigger and better now (as soon as I can fig out how to get my pics off my phone and on the computer you’ll see what I mean) My days are filled with work and training, and that is it, I am truly a bodybuilder now, for the first time ever. Finances pending, I will hopefully be showing my best in October at the N. Carolina Natural Forever State Championships. There I plan to go Lt Hvy and ideally will be coming in at 194lbs. Currently i’m up to 210-212, with bf around 9%. Also, soon I plan to be back on the site more often as things are falling into place down here, so keep an eye out for my rebirth. Strength & Honor to all. Oh and I will be getting some new body art also in the very near future, something that tells my commitment to my goals in bodybuilding.

I think it’s awesome that your children push you to do cardio and that you do it for them!! It’s sad to hear that you don’t get to see them as often as you like, but keep your eye on the prize and they’ll reap the rewards as much as you!! Hope you’re doing awesome, and FANTASTIC new avi - pure hotness, my friend!!
