The 2010 September 18th Naturalmania US Cup Show was a success! I managed to take home 5th place in my first Pro Figure Debut and 2nd place in Best Body against 13 lovely ladies. Whew! It was a tough line up. And not to mention a particularly tough month of preparation. With all the challenging life obstacles thrown my way, it's a wonder I got through this show on my feet. I'm happy to have it behind me and I'm ready to move on to the next challenges! 
This morning was my first baby step towards running a marathon. I went for 3 miles focusing on pace, stride, efficiency and distance. I'm hoping to be able to handle a winter of outdoor running but knowing my Arizona skin I'm not sure I will handle the cold. I hear it's all about the proper layering. Wish me luck!
