ROAD TRIP!

Ok...so it is only to the Dallas/Ft. Worth area, but a road trip none the less.  With my best friend and biggest supporter by my side, the car will be packed with plenty of Big Red zero, chunky chips ahoy and cigars...oh and my lifting gear!  Last time we made a trip together, it was again to the Dallas area, but I was on my last leg of drinking and felt like shit most of the time.  This time I am in way better shape, in more ways than one, and ready to compete in the North Texas Strongest Man/Woman! 

stopping to see the new stadium on our last trip

I don't get nervous for events, I have spent my life competing in one sport or another, but I have to say I can feel a little pressure for this one, even though I have already qualified for nationals.  I can no longer claim to be a "novice" and need to get my shit together from event #1.  It will be a tough day of events without my coach in attendance, but I am thankful to have Brooke and my Barn Crew for support and plenty of laughs!  Wish us luck!  

Oh and one more thing...we are staying in road-side ghetto inn, so if you don't see a post in a few days, go ahead and start to worry. 😉
