12 Weeks Out

Well I am 12 Weeks out from Nationals so the no cheating at all now kicks in. I see my coach Darren  this week and we will put together a game plan. I am excited about Nationals, I have spent a lot of time training and building up the area's I believe I struggle with so I am excited to see the final results.
 I don't take time off from training, usually the Monday after the show I am back at it. This something I need to do, I get quite grumpy if I don't get a workout in, and if you don't believe me ask my family members about the trip to Arizona...
I have been going to the gym since I was 16, it started with my Dad's influence and turned into a passion for me. I have spent countless hours in the gym... I was in the change room when Princess Diana died, I was on the weight room floor when the OJ verdict was read and I was on the Treadmill when 9-11 happened.
Funny to think how much time I actually spend there, always wanting to improve, and trying become better. It is not only physically but also mentality, envisioning my goals, pushing through any excuse and then seeing the final result makes it all worth the time and effort. I believe that the gym is a great metaphor for life....always keep pushing through obstacles, work towards what you desire, do your best and the hard work will pay off.
So here I go again....my new goal.....Nationals 2013.....Here I come
