Excited for the new rules.  I will probably be using this page mostly just for myself now since not too many people read it anyway, and also because I don't want to forget the outcomes of my bouts and what I've done and how I've improved.

2012 is looking good so far....

Yes, I am finally more focused on losing weight again.  I'm doing a biggest loser contest with my dad and so far I am down about 15 lbs and he is down about 20 lbs.  I'm back on Weight Watchers.  I'm feeling good.

As for roller derby, that is going well too.  Our last bout (Oct 30th) went well overall- we sold out in 24 hours, and had a packed house and pumped crowd!  Our next bout is only 10 (!) days away.  We are in a bigger venue this time, so instead of around 250 people we may have close to 500.  It should be amazing.

Here are some videos from the last bout!

It's a link to my you tube site with videos from the bout on there.




Now as for running- I'm going to start again tomorrow.  I have a 5 K to run in about 9 or 10 weeks, so I need to be back in shape for that. I'm running with my dad!  I'm so excited.   I'm hoping my endurance from roller derby is going to carry over a little for me and make up for the fact that I haven't ran since June.  Typing that made me feel dirty.

And....finally....a few pictures from our bout in October.  Remember, it was Zombies Vs. Vampires...and I was a Zombie!

Jamming my heart out
