Summer plans - relax, renew, clean the basement, and visit family on Amelia Island. Not too shabby.

Newest Passion
: Rediscovered Classical Stretch as I remembered the compliments that followed my previous consistent use of CS, and the purchase of 3 new CS DVDs which arrived today

Plan for Summer: As much time as possible at the beach, preparing for a 5k run at the end of August, emerging from lurkdom at VF.

What I Love
: Even as a major lurker, I love the people. Many otherwise lonely hours have been spent on the board--and I always feel that I'm part of a community!

Happy Birthday, Laura!!

Born: Metairie, Louisiana (right outside of New Orleans)

Newest Toy: My Supreme Pilates came in today, other than that, Jillian Michaels "Frontside" and "Backside" for Beginners, and Leslie's Walk Slim.

Plan for Summer: None. Keep working through summer, fall and Christmas so that I can finally get my butt in nursing school!

What I Love about VF: How generous people are with their time, advice and workouts. I'm excited because I've been a member on and off this forum for over five years, and I feel that this is the time I actually stay and get to know people.

Newest fitness passion: Kettlebells

Big plans for summer: I'm taking 6 weeks off from work this summer and will hang out with my babies (who are 11 & 13) and take classes with Cathe 3x per week!

What I like about VF: I've made good friends in the Morning Madness check-in. It is nice to have folks that share your fitness obsession, but it has been become much more than that. I also love finding about the latest and greatest fitness ideas.

ooh me too!

I've been a lurker for years but now that instructors are producing DVDs and I have a multi-regional player, I am finally in a position to try some of the workouts that are mentioned here.

Anyway, onto the info

Where were you born? Dublin, Ireland - and still here!!

What is your newest fitness toy, passion, or interest? Foam roller and pilates on it. I'm really enjoying Julia Afram (though her counting is annoying at times). Also just got gliding discs this week so looking forward to trying them too!

What big (or not so big) plans do you have for this summer? have a series of weddings to attend this summer (one in every month June, July and Aug ) so no holidays for me. On the exercise front, i'm looking forward to drier weather so i can do some hill walking. I'm also going to try and organise a rotation - preferable one that i won't abandon halfway through

What is one thing you love about VF? I really appreciate the knowledge about fitness I have picked up around here. I just love seeing the information that is shared amongst the forums - it is so inspiring especially as there isn't a huge amount of DVDs available for inter/adv home exercisers in Ireland or UK. I really appreciate the reviews and advice. Thanks to all
