What a weekend! 6 months of training for Femsport and our team of 7 ladies were finally able to demonstrate our months of hard work. If you’ve never heard of Femsport before, I tell people its a little like Tough Mudder meets Strong Man…but for women only \ud83d\ude42 There are 6 events that you compete in: Box Jumps, Kettle Bell Carry, Obstacle Course, Tire Flip, Tire Drag and Inverted Rows. <\/p><\/div>\n

\nThe day was amazing! Not a cloud in the sky. Minus a few oversights (there was no shade and we didn’t bring anything to sit on -whoops!) we really did have a remarkable experience! The BEST part for me was competing in an event that I have never done before. It was thrilling. All day we sat on pins and needles not knowing what was coming next, how difficult it would be, wondering if we could even do it. <\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nThe icing on the cake was that we ALL did it!<\/i> <\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\nDenise and Jen completed all 50 box jumps, under pressure, when they had only ever done the whole 50 a handful of times during training! Denise was the bravest one of us all, having been chosen by the event committee to be first in EVERY event! She led the way with determination and gusto! And you’ll never meet anyone more celebratory over her fitness improvement than Jen. Fist pumps, cheers and high 5’s all around as she beats her personal best, time and again. A definite reason to celebrate \ud83d\ude42<\/div>\n

\nKellie came into the morning a little more apprehensive. Her schedule hadn’t allowed her to train with us as often and she was nervous about flipping that 275 pound tire 6x. Taking a “bye” on that event was a thought that crossed her mind, but she hadn’t come here to quit…and she let us all know that. She came here to flip that damn tire. And she flipped it well, landing her in second place in her division! <\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nAnd there was Jenny. Who, in spite of packing her household to move to Alberta in a few weeks, beat us all at every event and proved that you can do anything you set your mind to! Her highlight was beating me in box jumps by 1\/2 a second!!<\/div>\n
\n<\/a><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n Danica owned her box jumps in 1 minute and somehow found a burst of energy 1\/2 way through the tire pull to cross the finish line in 26 seconds!<\/div>\n
\n<\/a><\/div>\n
\nAnd Sharon surprising us all by competing in a bikini competition and Femsport in back to back weekends! Proving to other 40 year old’s that life isn’t ending…its just starting!!<\/div>\n
\n<\/a><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nAnd me? Well….let’s just say it was an experience! Never, that I can remember, have I had so much adrenaline and cortisol coursing through my veins in one day! Every event drove us to anaerobic threshold. The nerves, the heat, the anticipation….it was thrilling!  I wouldn’t have changed it. The only thing left to do now…is to determine what’s next \ud83d\ude42<\/div>\n
