Fitness and Firearms with a Winning Mindset!

Over the past several months I have made goals for myself! For the first time in my life I understand what it means to be competitive. Setting goals with a winning mindset has made for a good year of improving my conceal carry skills along with my goals for  competitive shooing.  But with that, I realized what I have gotten out of my volunteer work as a leader with The Well Armed Woman has soared to amazing heights.  The Well Armed Woman planted the seed, but a group of us have bonded in a way I could never imagine. Through competition and teamwork, so much has come out of our little chapter that is now a big chapter in Orange County New York!  
Most recently a group of us fulfilled our goal together becoming more fit and completed a Spartan Sprint. I had planned to write about it on my blog, but one of my friends already did, with my sentiments. So rather then write it, I'm sharing her blog.  I send you off with.... No matter what your fitness level is, it is very important to get some level of fitness into your daily life. Especially for those of us who incorporate firearms training into our lifestyle.  With that said read and enjoy my friend Jackie's blog Tri-State Gun Girl Blog- The Power of Women Fitness and Firearms! .

I put this off for so long, now I have so much to say! 
Yes Im a Glock fan! 
Devoting my time to The Well Armed Shooting Chapters I have been evolving into a stronger woman with a new lifestyle.
It began 2 years ago, apprehensive and unsure I could do this, I took on The Well Armed Woman Orange County Chapter. Step one completed of my goal to help others with improving their shooting skills while at the same time self assuring myself!  
Its been a long road, with challenges, bumps and amazing rewards!  
That chapter grew from 5-almost 70 members. I grew as an instructor recently adding USCCA Instructor too my belt!. 8 of my members became leaders with 2 chapters spawning off. Some of us, myself included began shooting competitively. 
I don't know where I am going with this, but I bet your wondering about the "Barbie" type doll in combat pants. Dubbed Combat Carolann, I made her for myself to symbolize the woman I have become. I had been given a challenge by one of the guys on a local combat league. Surpassing that challenge and  goals set for the season, she is a reminder that I can still be pretty in my tactical gear that I swore I would never wear! Now I search for the perfect tactical pant. But, don't mess with this girl! She is on a mission to empower more women to strive to be strong and aware!
