Pink Mission #2

Today was my 37th Birthday and I got to experience an Interclub at Eagle Muay Thai in Cardiff...

This was my first one ...It was established that I didnt have anyone my weight to fight and the other ladies were heavier had more experience but ... I took the plunge and got to spar 3x low power rounds with one of the Eagle Muay Thai ladies Vic Duffin Jones

White Collar Boxing 11th November 2011 - The Boston Dome London





Hmmm.......I can honestly say that this was the most significant night and event of my life (apart from having my son Tyrian).  With only 9 days notice I took the opportunity to fight another female boxer at the Boston Dome, London in a White Collar boxing event hosted by Tim Woolgar.  My opponent had a height and weight advantage and had been boxing for 1 year (2 nights per week).  Despite the fact I had only been boxing since February this year  I wanted nothing more than to give it a go!

At approximately 8.30pm I watched some guys fighting in the ring,  it suddenly dawned on me i was going to get hit in the face and hard,  I did have a moment where I was planning my exit route but as soon as I heard the sound of my entry music and stepped out of the corner room that was it... Lucy Guy (Islington Boxing Club) and myself (Project Mayhem) went pretty full on in the ring for 3 x 90 second rounds.  I lost on points but I didn't care... I never expected to win I just wanted the experience of sparring hard with another female.  This was the most awesome rollar coaster road ever!  Now looking forward to my Chess Boxing Match in March 2012.

Welcome to my Blog...

Here's a little introduction... Since starting training in the gym 18 years ago, I have come across some really dedicated and awesome sportswomen.  My aim of this blog is to share my training experiences with friends and family as well as cover stories of other females who take part in fitness and mixed martial arts. We may not all be world champion players...but hey some of us train hard, have discipline and thrive of what we do!

Hopefully I will be able to review lots of training products and clothing and tell you about those too!

Things to do before your 40 :- over the course of the next 3 years be on a Pink Mission...with lots of things to do and people to see...here are some of them:
