51, and apparently this is the stage of life where I’ve decided to do more, not less 😂
The last couple of years have involved a lot of change, a lot of rebuilding, and quite a few “why not?” decisions.
I changed careers.
Started coaching.
Started working at a bootcamp.
Started judging fitness events.
Soon to be HYROX Head Judge.
I’ve run a half marathon, marshalled events, raced, paddled, lifted, climbed, fallen over occasionally and generally kept finding new things to have a go at.
I’m a mum of three.
I’m pescatarian.
I don’t drink alcohol.
I do eat muffins.
I train hard, but I don’t believe fitness needs to come with miserable food, endless restriction or making your whole life revolve around being “good”.
Food is fuel.
Food is also meant to be enjoyed.
And training, for me, is about much more than how I look.
I want muscle.
I want strength.
I want performance.
I want a body that lets me keep doing interesting things for as long as possible.
That’s really what Aging Hotly means to me.
Not trying to look 25.
Not desperately fighting ageing.
Just refusing to assume that getting older means becoming less capable, less adventurous, less ambitious or less visible.
I’m 51.
I’m not winding down.
I’m building. 💜
