How @ManningSumner Saved Me

How Manning Sumner changed my outlook on life..

A great surprise in finding Manning Sumner as a new follower ..

  Turns out, I've found myself following him.  Accepting his #NoDaysOff movement as my new mantra.  Those three little words moved me.

"No. Days. Off.  No. Days. Off.  No. Days. Off!" (on repeat)

..story of my workouts.

 When it comes to keeping up with a routine workout schedule, I'm last in that race.  I was the type to workout on random 2 week spurts.  Enough time to go hard and trim down.  Then I would just settle and go randomly to the gym until I stop going for months.  That was the history of my entire fitness life after high school gym class!

I never had or used a motto when in fitness mode. WAIT - I do frequently tell myself "You're getting so fat, you need to workout." I believe now that saying that to myself was in turn detrimental to my goal of getting fit.

Think about it, being that negative to yourself:

Your mind is telling you that you're already fat .. well then, what's another day missed at the gym?  It's not like you're going to lose all this weight in a single workout session.  Right?  So you'll just start tomorrow - and right now, you'll go and have that extra slice of cheesecake.

Instead of putting yourself down ..

Beat yourself up physically - in the gym and mentally - hit the books!  Just repeat these three simple words:  No Days Off.  Keep it as a commitment to yourself that you are going to take care of you. Take care of your mind, body, and spirit.  Don't stop you're momentum.  Keep going.  Keep fighting for your goals and dreams.  No days off means no days off!  Time is irreplaceable - and you need time to become everything you can be.

Guess I'll be giving up these for awhile...

Kimi Räikkönen Wins Formula1 Racing Season Opener

Stayed up to see the opening of the 2013 FIA Formula One World Championship.

"Kimi Räikkönen and his team were crazy with only 2 pit stops! Really?! #Jawdrop"

This year decided that instead of going for Ferrari, I'm cheering for the Infiniti Red Bull Team of Sebastian Vettel and Mark Webber.

Sebastian Vettel took 3rd and made it on the podium, Webber came in 6th:

Colin Kaepernick's Body says it all ... Superbowl XLVII

It's that time of year again!  Super Bowl XLVII is happening in New Orleans on Sunday, February 3rd!

How exciting to find two coaches who are brothers, lead their team to this final game.  Obviously my favourite game of the year, not only for all the hoopla but also for all the prop bets! - oh you guys just know me so well. :) Once I figure everything out, I will let you know my picks for the day!  Catch it on twitter: @trinidypicks.

Poke a little fun? Sure.. why not?

  I decided to create a little something fun to help show which quarterback I will be rooting for!

TrinidyAnna's QB Showdown:

Colin Kaepernick's Body says it all ...

caption: "You're going down Flacco! This Super Bowl is mine! I'm the future. Me. *evil laugh* "

   

"I got the moves! Oh yea!"

"I got the guns.. The beach is that way Flacco! "  

" And I got Him on my side. Amen! "

" I am so gonna lose . . . "

As you can see, I will be rooting for Colin Kaepernick and the San Francisco 49ers at Super Bowl XLVII.

Go niners!!

#NHL is back - short season, but BACK!

With the NHL Lockout over, I can dust off my gear and live the hockey life once again!


Being that I am Canadian, Hockey runs through my blood. I mean, living in the 'True North' with Subarctic temperatures it's kinda hard not to love the game.

The best part of the game - if any of you out there can experience it, is : To play hockey outdoors in the chilling wind in the frozen lakes of the back country. LOVE.

Now on to business… With a short season, I've got to maximize my hockey exposure as much as possible. I've got 3 teams that I root for:

These are the greatest John Cena photos I have.

I got a nice surprise this evening when I found a memory card hidden away in a purse of mine.  Excited, I quickly ran to check out what exactly was on it.
