No goal is impossible, and anyone is capable of change. No one knows this better than me. At age 8, I was an obese child with confidence issues due to being nicknamed "Dina the Dinosaur" by my classmates. This continued into my teen years, where I was a women's size 14 by 8th grade. It wasn't until I joined sports teams, started riding my bike, and changed my diet, that I saw not only my physique change, but also my attitude! Since that time, I've achieved more than I ever could have dreamed. I was an all-conference setter in volleyball and a state qualifier in track my Senior year of High School. My Senior year of college I joined my ski team after only skiing 4 times, and by the end of the season I earned 3rd place in the Division. At 30 years old I picked up a tennis racquet for the first time, and at age 34 my doubles partner and I claimed the 3.5 state doubles title in Colorado as well as winning the 2012 National title at the Public Parks tournament hosted in Denver that year. Most recently, I started mountain biking in September of 2013, and on June 1st 2014 I won my first race. I credit my cardiovascular and strength training, my perseverance and confidence in myself through mental conditioning, and being centered in who I am as a person with high expectations, goals, and faith. Success did not come without failure first. I placed dead last in my first ski race. My legs are covered in scars from mountain bike crashes. I've had numerous reproductive health issues resulting in multiple surgeries and the inability to have children. I lost both my parents to health problems within 5 years of each other; as an only child still in my 20's, this caused me severe emotional trauma. I was laid off from my job in 2013. I fulfilled my lifelong dream of moving to Colorado in 2010, but not without 3 prior attempts. I currently have less than 15% body fat, but 20 years ago I had 26%! I tell you this because there's a reason I believe so passionately in what I do, and it's not because I've lived a perfect, trouble-free life. You CAN accomplish your goals, no matter how many u-turns, bumps, and detours the road throws at you along the way! If you can learn to survive these times, grow from them, and go forward to thrive, life's scariest times become preparation for the INCREDIBLE times that are inevitably ahead!!
