2007 NPC NATIONALS NOVEMBER 17

[siouxcountry]

My training partner saw Elena last night at weigh-ins and said she is on point.

That's what I like to hear!

I'm definitely IN for Nats next year.   
I'm seriously considering the North Americans in September as well, but I haven't decided yet.

AZ, I checked a website with the preliminary schedule for next year's National shows, and it says November 21-22 in Atlanta.  But I am going to keep my fingers crossed, as I would LOVE for it to be in NY.  The only problem with NY is that I assume it would be at the Tribecca Performing Arts Center (where the Easterns was)...So everything would be spread out all over the city, there wouldn't be just ONE hotel where everyone stays.  At Team U, people stay everywhere, and you end up having to get cabs all over the city.  Junior Nats was confined to one host hotel where everyone stayed, and the show was right downstairs, so it was pretty cool.

Cool Ripper!!  Thats what I wanted to hear.

Atlanta huh?.............I think I wanna go.....maybe I will run into someone down there........No, to support the girls......hahahh

I was out of town all weekend and am just catching up on the Nationals pics, etc.

One thing I will say for sure is that I am crushed about Claire's placing in the LWs.  And pretty shocked. 
I thought she was gonna take the whole thing.  After looking at the pics, I would say that the LW class was incredibly tough.  I thought Galina and Tammy both looked phenominal, but I would definitely definitely have Claire in the top 3.  Beni looked great, and I may be biased, but I would have still picked Claire to win. 

Congrats to the winners and new IFBB Pros. 

Kristy Hawkins looked phenominal and deserved the overall.  She is one of the most beautiful bigger FBBs around.  She came in hard as nails too, and interestingly, both she and Claire were prepped by Betty and Ed Pariso.  Yet Claire placed seventh out of 12.

Britt Miller moved up to LHW quite successfully.  She placed second to Kristy and looked really awesome.
