I've been heavily involved in sports my entire life. I think I was handed a ball as soon as I could hold one, and just never really put it down. Eventually I narrowed it down to volleyball, softball, dirt bikes, and swimming. But then I found roller derby.

Diet That's one of my downfalls. I spent most of my childhood/young adult life dieting, so now I workout to enjoy eating pretty much whatever I want. I know as I age, I'm going to need to change this and can hopefully jump on the healthy eating bandwagon with the rest of my team!
