IFBB Figure Pro from the north, Jane Awad, checked in with me to report she will be back on stage and is gunning for the Houston Pro Figure contest. Jane took some time off and herself off the market by getting married. She has also been focused on her training studio “Train With Jane.” Recently relocated to California, Krissy Chin, will be making her 2008 debut at this show. Krissy worked her way through a few NPC shows in early 2007 before reaching pro status in New York. We’ll see how productive her off-season has been in a few weeks. Rookie sensation, Lenay Hernandez will be making her pro debut at this show. Nay Nay tells me she is eager to get back on stage and “Shoot for the moon if you don’t reach it you will still land among the stars.” You have to love the attitude of this Miami beauty. Colorado Figure Pro Jessica Steffens will be making her debut at this show as well. Others who are slated to be in the show are Elisha Archibold, Tivisay Briceno, Andrea Dumon, Carol King, Patricia Mello, Petra Mertl, Karen Mullarkey-Barringer and Amy Peters. As soon as the official competitor list is released you can find it here on hardbody.com.
A little fitness battle is brewing on the East Coast. Shannon Meteraud is definitely doing the show and she’s in it to win it but Ms. Greenwood thinks the title is hers. hmmm. Tracey told me yesterday that she may love Shannon but “I’m going to show her how it’s done”. Which of the duo will finish higher? Will Dr. Greenwood be able to handle defeat if Shannon triumphs to victory on her return to fitness? What about Fletch, she could steamroll them both. I haven’t heard who else is doing the Houston Fitness portion yet but the Three Stooges from the East will provide plenty of entertainment for those in attendance.
