16 October update. Firstly its great to step off the plane and feel the warm air and sunshine on your face! There was plenty of brown fit bods walking around Cavill mall last night in Surfers so there is a buzz around. Actually had to have the aircon on in the apartment....jealous?!
Bumped into Farah and Lisa Cameron last night and they told me there's over 300 competitors, yes 300 in the comp on Saturday. And about 200 of those are Aussies. Will be interesting to see how they'll get all these through in one day. One thing for sure its going to be a long one. The athletes will only get brief few minutes to shine so they'll have to flex and pose their butts off and get noticed as soon as they get on stage.
Farah said it took her 1.5 to get registered and Ali told us the same thing.
Hopefully contest day will be better organised! Ali and Farah are in the same classes Physique 45+ (they call figure physique for this show and Shape is figure). There's about 15 in the Physique 45+ class so they have to get judges attention quickfast. Ali will also do open along with Lisa C.
Just chatted to Sue Bettridge and Karen Bishop this morning sitting down having on a bench on the sidewalk eating what else but chicken! they're both looking great and can't wait to eat tomorow.
As part of the Natural Olympia comp, there's a Bikini Diva contest held in Cavill Mall this arvo 4pm, so I'm sure there's going to be big crowds to check the bods out.
Bye for now!
Lisa
