Desiree

I edited my profile at I feel very blessed to be married to my best friend. Not a day goes by that my husband does not encourage me or make me laugh. I am definitely not your typical girly-girl – I enjoy watching pro wrestling with my hubby and his friends. I wear make-up maybe 2x per year, my wardrobe consists of jeans, scrubs, tank tops and flip flops. I like to workout, sweat, and get dirty, and if it takes me more than 10 min to get ready in the morning – I must have forgot to pack my lunch the night before. I like simple things – neatness and organization being some. I like to go to bed early and get up early, and get a workout in before I start the day. I enjoy competition in athletics. I have raced many 5ks and 10ks, completed the Chicago and Boston marathons (PR at Boston 3:25). Triathlons, too, from sprints to half-ironman distance. However, I’m tired of the monotonous training of endurance events and ready to expand my horizons to figure and fitness competitions! I’m a big believer in setting goals for yourself and planning the course to reach them. I get satisfaction out of working hard in all that I do, but I strive for balance in all areas of my life – work, play, spiritually, and emotionally.
