I am 37 1/2 years old mother of 3 kids ages 17, 12, and 8 1/2 years old ( a boy and 2 girls). I am married to Scott who is also a bodybuilder :-). Some may know me as "Jenni Whip" In High School I was very active in sports and even up till Scott and I got married. Once the kids came, we put family first and put off going to the gym for about 10 years. When I saw a picture of myself in a bathing suit I decided it was time for a change. After reading several magazines and finding a very good friend, Tina P who helped convince me I was not too old to do Figure, I set my goal for my first figure show. Didn't place but had a great time and competed in several other Figure shows placing in many with my final Figure show being the OCB Midwest States where I placed 2nd in the Open.
2008 has been more difficult for me being diagnosed with an auto-immune disease in March. I only attempted one competition which was the OCB Midwest States where again I placed 3rd. Currently setting my goals for 2009! I strongly live by the quote,"Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.' ~ Sir Winston Churchill
