Our Next American Gladiator!







This past weekend, Jason and I drove to Phoenix so I could try out for American Gladiators. I know this sounds like a crazy idea, but at the time, we thought it was a good one. Well, once we showed up to the gym where the tryout was held, I started to change my mind. There were over 600 people at the tryout and over 300 of those people were in front of us in line! Jason was a great sport and stayed with me while I waited in line from 8-5:30pm. I met some new friends (above), and that made the day fun. Once we finally made it in the door for the tryout (at about 5:30) the rest went pretty fast. I was tested on how many pullups I could do in 30 seconds, how many up/downs in 30 seconds, I ran a speed ladder, and did 10 sprints. After that I was interviewed by an assistant producer. I think my chances are pretty slim, but I will be sure to let everyone know if I make it on the show! Enjoy the pictures of our most recent adventure!
