I have arrived safe and well in Portland Oregon and what a place. It’s so beautiful here and I really enjoyed my first day out on the bike and can’t wait to keep riding as I prepare for my first race in Seattle this weekend.

I was always active in sports, softball, track, volleyball, horseback riding. Sports are in our genes as I came from a baseball household.
How did she get into it?
My story is somewhat comical looking back at it. I left a great job in Boston to become an intern for the Hudson Valley Renegades at the age of twenty-six. I couldn't get a job in baseball right out of college and I didn’t want to get a job based on nepotism. I was successful in Boston, but baseball kept calling me.
I left my position there once I convinced the Hudson Valley Renegades to hire me as their intern making $400 a month, all to be a part of the game I grew up loving. I started working for the Renegades and in 2 months I got promoted to a director position. Less then a year later the ownership group created a job for me overseeing six minor league baseball teams. My role has expanded as the years have progressed.

All girls want great looking legs for summer, and many believe they have great legs donning short skirts with legs like twiggy! But in all honesty, skinny legs aren’t particularly sexy. They’re just skinny, and of course weak. Larger legs are often more shapely and sexy, certainly stronger, but a happy medium is always best. Men love good legs, and men love strong legs. They may comment on long legs, but don’t always take that as a ‘sexy compliment’. 
I joined the Navy in 2001 and it was during my general training on board HMS Grafton in 2002, where I donned my first pair of boxing gloves. The initial intention was to get fit, but the boxing soon turned competitive and I stepped in the ring for my first bout in June 2005. Three years on, I am the number 1 female featherweight in Britain, I have represented England on 15 occasions, and am ranked number 3 in Europe and number 5 in the World.
