When I Started:
2001
How I Started:
I was a cardio queen before I started lifting weights. Ran 4 miles every day with one 6 mile run a week. Then someone said you ought to lift weights. I was afraid of getting too big. LOL. In 2001 with help from 2 of my guy friends at work that lifted, I started my journey.
Why I Love It:
More than anything I love to lift weights. I love the feel of my muscles getting pumped. I love the soreness the next day. I especially loved how lifting sculpted my body.
How I Stay Motivated:
Wanting to stay healthy and fit. Wanting to be a hot mother of 3 at age 38. To motivate people to want to do the same. To look like I'm in my 20's and not almost 40.

Goal (Long):
"Living life without following your dreams is a life without purpose or passion. Having the desire to follow your dreams, regardless of how difficult the path, may guarantee you success even though the journey may be paved with obstacles. When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better too." (Tosca Reno) I want to become better and live my life with purpose and passion!!!
This was my hundreth week of crossfit training and I am still so much in love with it as when I first started. I am so glad that I was introduced to this way of training. What a difference it has made from traditional training. I am very impressed with all of my accomplishments since I started...
I do crossfit 5 to 6 days a week. I have been doing 2 wod's for a few months now. Trying to run afterwards if I have enough time. I have really kicked up my training since the beginning of the year.
Ah shucks-thanks Nic-you're making me blush. But seriously thanks, really means a lot. I meant to tell you, I just recently did Fight Gone Bad, and while I did okay with 315 reps, I really didn't think I was gonna get through all 3 rounds. I'm not sure if you've done FGB, but I always dread that one...and I have to do it again in a couple weeks.
That's great. Are you thinking about doing some coaching in the future?
I'm in the midst of getting a personal trainer certification, and gonna look at a nutrition certification too...never thought I've have to start hittin the books again.
I'm gonna still get in my crossfit 2x a week, but I think I might take it easy on some of the other workouts, at least for a couple of weeks or so...then back at it full throttle.
How's your training been lately?
I have been having a problem trying to send that file. It won't compress. So I am going to try another option. Did you see that I had 3 girls finish 2nd, 3rd and 4th at a local competition in scaled. I was so proud.
