33.

Unlike previous years when my birthday heralded big events, like Challenge Roth in 2014 and my Eurotrip last year, my birthday this year was a quiet affair spent in the company of my close family. I ate entirely too much, laughed and smiled so hard, and felt so loved. It was perfect.

It’s been 20 years since I’ve had this cut. They say when a woman cuts her hair, she’s about to change her life. Well, I’ve been feeling a bit lethargic and stuck in a rut, so I guess having one thing less to worry about when I’m training should help me get into gear better. I only have eight or nine weeks until Challenge Vietnam, so I need to make those weeks count.

When you get to this age you want to trim all the fluff happening in your life and double-down on what’s important to you. I’m very thankful I have partners and supporters on this journey that believe in me and what I’m trying to do to get Filipinos to sit up and get fit.
