Hi All,
As El Capitan of this incredible team I feel very honoured to have the opportunity to do this event with some truly incredible ladies! And what makes it even more amazing is that we haven't ever actually "met" each other! As participants in Michelle Bridges 12 Week Body Transformation we shared triumphs and tragedies but most importantly we discovered our inner warriors and I'm so looking forward to not only meeting these women, but completing this incredible challenge with them!
If you wanted to know a little more about our members you can check out my blog page "My Wild Team" http://testingmyendurance.wordpress.com/my-wild-team/
