Updates from the New Orleans hotel
I’m in the lobby of the New Orleans hotel with a number of the IFBB’s top women. Jen Hendershott and Adela Garcia are bantering back and forth over who will beat Susie Curry’s record. Jen says she hurt her foot doing her routine and couldn’t put her shoe on. She doesn’t think anything is fractured but just sore. Felicia Romero is chilling on the couch eating some chicken. Sonia Adcock is also relaxing before heading out on her shoot. The new Figure Olympia champ says she feels good but is tired. Mary Lado tells me she didn’t party last night but might when she is at home. Tracey Greenwood missed her flights and will have to take a red eye home.
Adela Garcia is sitting on the couch with her boyfriend. Her knee is sore and has a wheelchair in her room. Now she is measuring heights with the other competitors. Adela claims she is taller than Jenn Gates but is shorter than Sonia Adcock. Cathy LeFrancois had Adela sign her check. If you haven’t had a chance to meet Adela she is one of the funniest people you will meet.
