Open letter to BGR!: My New Orleans Rock ‘n’ Roll Marathon
March 19, 2012
By: Alisia Muir
Open Letter to BGR!
I began running in earnest in 2007 and ran my first marathon in 2008. Because I made the commitment to run longer distances, I had resigned myself to always being one of the few (if not the only) black women around. Then I stumbled across the BGR! blog in late 2010 and thought, “Holy cow, other black women ARE out there?!” 
While I’ve never was able to join any of the BGR! local groups (to be read: I AM the black girl running in the town where I live), I knew that I could log on to my computer and get a daily dose of inspiration in my news feed. My opportunity to formally connect with BGR! would present itself shortly.

Good morning BGR! Nation. The weather this weekend in most places was great and I hope you all had a chance to enjoy it with a nice run. If not, treat yourself to one today. You’re worth it!
