athlete profile : Michelle Bannister
I started as a casual gym user before getting into marathon running. I really enjoyed the challenge a marathon presented, I found that it is a great test of your mental strength. I ran 4 marathons in my first year of running and paid the price for doing too much too soon – I developed an injury which required me to stop running for six months to let it recover. Not one to sit idle for too long, and not being able to run, I diverted my energy to weight training.
After a few months I began to see a noticeable change in my figure and it was suggested that maybe I should do a show to satisfy my competitive urge until I could resume running. Well, once I started I was hooked! That was 18 months ago, my running injury has now gone away, but at this stage I have no interest in marathon running, preferring my new chosen sport of bodybuilding.
I love the way I look and feel when I compete, I love the discipline and training required, I love the rush you get on stage and most of all I like the people you meet along the way.
