After training with Chantelle for so many years, I have had many motivational achievements that I could share. From her supporting me in every way to be able to confidently stand on stage in 2 bikini/fitness competitions, to running the Valentines 10km night race in under an hour. But all of that pales in comparison to my latest journey which started off as what was meant to be a quick, easy, same-day, umbilical hernia operation, and turned out to be a triple hernia op that had me in hospital for 3days and off my feet for 6weeks. In my mind my fitness journey was over, I was battling to pick up my hairdryer for the day, never mind a dumbbell. I was shattered, depressed, and couldn’t see how I’d be able to find my way back.

But everyday I got a phone call or message from C to say, you’ll be ok, just come… just arrive, that’s all you have to do.

So I came, each day… for 15min in the beginning. And days turned into weeks, and then months, and then it happened… I was able to compete in an insanely awesome event, HYROX! partnering with my 22 year old son Justin. I was afraid that I wouldn’t be the same again, but our C in her kind, supportive, unending way, encouraged me and helped me through a dark, hard time to come back stronger and happier than ever before. Please everyone, it’s in the times you really don’t feel like it, or think that you’re not capable of doing it, that you just need to arrive…

Thank you Chantelle for having hope for me, and never giving up on me. You make this world a brighter place, with never ending possibilities 🩷
