Being in my best shape, my conditioning, it's something I pride myself in.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I try to be active and to keep my body in the best shape I can possibly be in.
Being physical is something I pride myself on.
The conditioning and the lifestyle changes you have to make to remain a healthy athlete are what molded me into what I am today.
I like how my body feels when I'm in shape; I love how it feels after I work out each day. Fitting in the clothes I like to wear comfortably and living a healthy lifestyle is important to me.
I had always been proud of my body - its strength and grace enabled me to pursue my passions.
In my sports or workout life, I like to prove to myself I can do something, whether it's a half marathon or whatever it is. I like to take challenges that scare me because then once we've accomplished it, we feel stronger.
Racing, competing, it's in my blood. It's part of me, it's part of my life; I have been doing it all my life and it stands out above everything else.
I'm doing it by enjoying what I do in the gym, really enjoying my foods.
I never thought I would become that person who loves working out. It sucks while you're doing it, but the second you finish, it's like, 'Wow, I feel great! I'm stronger and much more confident.'
I pride myself in taking care of my mind, body and soul, and not just through exercise.
