Winning my class qualified me to be in the National competitions. However, I don't think I'm ready for that just yet. Yes, I won my class, but it was only one competition and I had a small number of girls in my class. I have two more competitions coming up in three weeks and maybe if I am successful there, I'll consider a national competitions.
I also realized though my passion for both training and competing. The sensation for being on stage is one that is hard to describe. It's such a rush. If I could work part time and train seriously part-time I would love life. I may try to think of a way to make that happen.
With all of it, though, is finding a balance between life and training. These past eight weeks were really only about me. I couldn't hang out the way I wanted to and I was constantly tired. I had a full time job, my website and then working out. Many days it was too much. I pretty much ceased dating and if I went out, it was only for a short time. Regular food became a luxury and today was my only off day for several more weeks. I couldn't keep up like this for an entire year, but I definitely feel that I've made a lifestyle change that I hope to incorporate with my own life.
