latest update on Jo Stewart

[HOG]

Middleweight class - female bodybuilding, we did have a very competitive class. I made the top 5 and Elena did as well, unfortuneley I didnt see the other 3 girls who are back tomorrow so I cant tell you much about them

Something I have learned from this experience, (and I should of known) is to never presume what you have been told to be the truth. we were told at yesterdays registration to be there this morning at 9.am. We turned up at 9.00 to fnd the womans lightweight class already on stage and my class lined up in the pump up area ready to be marched out the backstage. I had time to tear my clothes off, throw myself on the ground for some pushups, and abdominals, while my husband fought with the staff to get me a number to compete. With 30 hours flying time, and 1 years preparation for this event

there was no way we were giving up the fight to join the line. There were 3 of us in total added to the line up of 7 competitors who were at the 8am registration so whatever the reason for the other girls added into the class, we (Mark and I) were given the wrong info at Thursdays weigh in and registration. But to be fair, they had given us the time of which the judges had to be there ( my husband mark is a judge) and we did not question what time the athletes had to be there ( DAH!)

However, the class was awesome and despite a few things which I wont go into right now, I hope for a good smooth day tomorrow

and I will be there 2 hours early...

I was so lucky I was in the Jan Tana room this morning having make up and hair done and I was with Isabelle. Oh she is gorgeous and it was such a buzz getting to talk to her. She is the nicest person...
