An SEC Girl in an ACC World

Friday we made the journey up to North Carolina for the ACC Championship. My husband is the GT fan/Alumnus, I am a UGA Alumna and a college football fan who is a fan of a Georgia team defeating FSU. So we were off to NC!

We arrived in town and it was freeeeezing! Luckily our hotel was perfectly positioned near a Ross and a TJ Maxx, tomorrow I would buy a proper jacket. My sis(Alicia) and I were debating squeezing in a workout, but Taco Mac won. I did squeeze in a quick plank set before the night ended.


Saturday before the game Alicia and I got in our workouts. We figured we would get plenty of walking while exploring the city and tailgating. Alicia completed a total body workout I completed a Biceps & Triceps bodybuilding workout. 


We headed into town to grab some lunch and warmth before we set up our tailgate. 
After lunch we spent the next 4-5 hours tailgating right outside the stadium.


Lots of food and I played my 1st hand of cards against humanity. Instafan!

We had amazing seats, thanks to our friends!


Wow what an exciting game!

The Jackets could not pull out the victory, but I did get in over 16K steps for the day!

It was a pretty amazing game watching experience and a road trip with some really great people. So glad we were able to go.

Were you watching the games on Saturday?

Until next time,

On the 1st day she tried... On the 4th day Success!

Hey there ... I know I haven't been around lately ... But, I'm back!

At the Great Tree in Atlantic Station

So to start the month I'll recap what I've been up to.

Went back to the alma mater last weekend for the UGA v GT game!
The annual rivalry week paper put together by GT, since I work there I get a copy :-P
On our way to Downtown Athens on the Stadium shuttle

Our out of town guest Ruchi and Nirav, at least they are supporting the right team

Inside Sanford Stadium

We got great seats

The hubs not so excited about how things are going

It's almost over now!

We were victorious! Instate champions!

Thursday the hubs got us tickets to the Falcons v. Saints game. My 1st game of the season!

Me and the hubs

And another victory!

Saturday I started the day with an arm shaking leg quivering crossfit workout. We also started our handstand challenge.

Then it was time to get ready for some college football.


UGA v. Bama for the SEC championship!

It was a hard fought game, all the way to the last few seconds! But, we weren't able to secure a victory :-( Our boys played with tons of heart and hopefully earned the respect of the rest of the SEC.

I was looking forward to relieving some stress from the game with Hatha yoga at Crossfit Around the Corner. We had a great turn out for class! Looking forward to getting to know everyone and helping them meet their goals.

After that I worked on my kipping pull-up and my Overhead Squat technique. Both are showing vast improvements. We found out this week that the Crossfit Open will kickoff March 7th. We don't know what's coming! It will be my 1st time participating. I just want to put up some competitive numbers. Lots of work to put in til March ...3...2...1...GO!
