I was determined to re-write my narrative. Broken was not an option. Fitness is a huge part of my life, I wasn’t about to change that. I dug deep into my career, research, and all things nutrition. Fitness was my first opportunity. I started swimming for recovery, about the only thing you can do with a fractured pelvis. And then riding, to eventually running again. Welcome T R I A T H L O N S. Next opportunity, nutrition. I viewed each failure as a learning opportunity, one step closer to understanding what my body needs while also learning what not to do. Especially during racing, HOLY BONK! And then I found CrossFit & weightlifting, a pivotal point in my journey. Through mentors, coaches, experience, and all the educational content I could get my hands on, I went from thin & lean-to strong & fierce. E V E R Y T H I N G changed. My body, my training, my ability to run, bike, swim for hours and still have power, my mindset, the way I viewed food, my CONFIDENCE!  4 years after my osteopenia diagnosis I walked out of my Dr. appointment with a cleared record. Normal bone mass & some killer biceps to prove it. I’ve never looked back - It’s taken me years of trial and error, misguided information on how women’s bodies should train and eat; a whole lot of come to Jesus moments to finally understand what "balance" feels like. To feel good, look good, and perform STRONG. To have energy, enjoy life, train hard, sleep more, eat more, and still hit PR’s.
