So at 46 years of age I’ve decided that now is the time to get into a boxing ring and fight another opponent for the very first time.🤣 Those who know me will understand the fear I have got doing something like this in front of an audience!
I have done boxing classes in the past and have always enjoyed punching those pads but to actually punch a real human is another level. Even writing this now has made my palms sweaty! But it’s a goal I have set for myself and when I saw that if I signed up to UWCB I could raise money for Cancer Research, I was in! Such an important charity close to us all…for those loved ones we have lost along the way and for those friends & family currently receiving treatment.
My trainer Joe has given me the confidence that I can do this. I look forward to our weekly PT sessions and am trying to get in as many other classes as possible in the preparation for this. I currently go to Body & Soul Ladies Fitness and have been getting loads of support from the staff & members there. Even though half of them think I’m mad!
My training with UCWB starts on Mon 24th Oct for 8 weeks and then it’s fight night on Sat 17th December in The Olympia. So 75 days from writing this I will be walking out to that ring preferably in the blue corner!! Tickets go on sale on 21st October at 12 if anyone fancies a night out, I’d love your support!
I’m going to post my journey on here and hopefully me getting out of my comfort zone will persuade you to please donate to my fundraiser.
Thank you all for taking the time to read this,
Love Rocky xxx
