Women's Tri Fitness: Day 1
I'm currently chillin' at the Holiday Inn Express computer trying to slow down this adrenaline rush so that I can sleep!
I arrived in Tampa yesterday for the Women's Tri Fitness Fall Classic. Yesterday was spent relaxing in the hotel room, and exploring the area.
Today the competition didn't start until 4pm, so I visited a few cool places to pass the day. This morning I went for a beautiful jog at Upper Tampa Bay Park. What a view! I saw dozens of egrets and got a chance to relax and read about the wildlife in Tampa Bay.
After the annoying application process of Pro Tan, I went out to tour the Big Cat Sanctuary. I'm sure everybody there thought I was some sort of freak with my dark orange tan, but I still enjoyed myself! Please take a moment to visit their website. I learned so much about how cruel humans can be, and do not care to support a zoo, circus, or silly "pictures with tiger cubs" ever again. These animals were so beautiful.
At 4pm I actually got around to competing! I never feel great later in the day (I've always been a morning person) but things still went fairly well. Tonight we competed in bikini, fitness routines, and box jumps. I felt really great about my routine, and was thrilled the audience responded. It's fun to feed off of their energy!
Now my legs are exhausted, and I need a good night sleep!
Before I sign off... one more quick update. KEN GOT A JOB!!!! We are moving to Appleton, but I will still work full time in Madison. Yep, I'm in my late 20's and moving back home with my daddy. Thank god I have a great one! I will be doing quite a bit of driving, but Ken finally having a job (and a GREAT ONE!) will be well worth it. The Vet clinic is wonderful, and the staff was very friendly! I can't wait to get to know them better. And the best part... there is a popcorn machine in the break room!!!
So needless to say, the past week has been stressful with getting ready for these two fitness contests and moving into two new places. But, happy times are ahead!
