GolfCart34 Posted March 8, 2016 Report Share Posted March 8, 2016 Hey everyone! I decided to create a new thread for my alter ego (real name is Amanda btw) to log mostly workouts so I can keep track of my progress easier. Feedback is always welcome.First a bit of background. I picked my alter ego's first name from a random name generator. The last name, Ichiban (literally 'number 1' in Japanese) was inspired by one of my favorite F1 drivers, Jenson Button, who uses that word frequently. My alter ego is based on the main character in the novel I'm working on, I just didn't want to use the same name for both. Here's my origin story (thanks to the Level Up Your Life book for providing a template). Amanda Tallman lived a humble existence as a nerdy writer and pizza maker. Like other superhero stories, our hero struggled with a general lack of confidence and discipline in her life. However, as the prophecies of old foretold, change was coming. Thanks to a serious financial wake up call, and the amazing tutelage of the ridiculously good looking, clever, and modest mentor Steve Kamb, our hero transformed creating Rogue Ichiban to protect the lives of her loved ones. Although our hero lives an ordinary life by day, at night she is an absolute badass, known for her epic writing skills, and one time even finishing a half marathon!I just started CrossFit a couple of weeks back so most of my tracking will relate to that. Let the fun times commence!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote GolfCart34 Twitter | FaceBook | Instagram *I'm not the type of person who is scared of something.

GolfCart34 Posted March 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2016 My plant leveled up again today. Now I'm working on a cactus with my water consumption. Hey, if it gets me to drink more water then why not? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote GolfCart34 Twitter | FaceBook | Instagram *I'm not the type of person who is scared of something.
