It's been a while since I last posted...I'm long over due!

Well, the Canadian Nationals are 1 1/2 weeks away...I'm sad to say that I won't be competing this year. After careful consideration, at 9 weeks out, my trainer and I decided that it would be best for me to take this year off. Unfortunately, my body just didn't respond this year like it has in the past....although I'm disappointed, I know that I need to be in better condition than I was last year. I wasn't willing to gamble with my placing this year, I want to return to the Canadians and win! My focus has shifted to next year already...I'm now back in to maintenance mode...keeping my weight down, training and planning my next contest prep.

The 2006 Nationals are being held in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan...not only is Saskatoon my home town, it was the host city of the 2003 Canadians where I didn't place well....it will be one hell of a victory if I return and place well!

Aside from my disappointing decision to back out of the nationals...I have used the last few weeks to re-group...I have also been spending a majority of my time worrying about my own clients and their respective competitions...it has been fun!

I do have some great news...I'll be attending the Olympia this year! I couldn't miss out on the 40th anniversary event! I'm very excited :)

That's all for now, have a great day!
