Under Armour’s What’s Beautiful Contest

Under Armour, a company that I’ve always held in high regard as being one of the front runners in fitness apparel and accessories, recently launched a contest called “What’s Beautiful.” According to the contest website, the challenge is “A Competition to Redefine the Female Athlete.” UA has challenged women to set a goal for themselves and then to show the world as they work toward achieving it. The challenge can be as big or as small and as specific or general as you want.

Once you’ve announced your goal by uploading a video of about it and how you will achieve it, there are 19 additional challenges to be completed over the course of the 9 week contest. You can do them in any order you like. So far I’ve completed 6 challenges, including “You Can Count On Me” (upload a photo of the body part that will most help you achieve your goal), “Two a Day” (workout two times in one day and post a picture from both) and “Upload Your Game Face” (self explanatory). You can also upload additional videos to get ahead.

At the end of the 9 weeks, 10 finalists will be selected that will receive $1,000 in Under Armour gear. From the finalists, three winners will be selected (based on what exactly, that is still unknown).  The prizes include “training with UA celebrity trainers, a nutritionist consultation and gear for a year featuring the latest Under Armour products. These three women will become the new faces of the brand,­ participating in Under Armour Women’s marketing efforts and gaining access to special events.”

Redefining the Female Athlete

The goals that women set for themselves are so diverse. From runners wishing to PR to fitness competition hopefuls to new moms wanting to shed baby weight, each woman’s goal is unique.  Some of my favorite goals so far are:

I WILL… Climb Mt. Kilamanjaro

I WILL… Run a half marathon in under 2 hours. 🙂 (My goal last year!)

I WILL… Get a full-fledged 4-pack!

I WILL… Safely return from a stress fracture and reclaim my previous fitness level of a sub-18 5k.

I WILL…  Change the face of the 40 something mom!!

I WILL…Train for, enter, and complete a duathlon.

I WILL… Become a yogi.

Can you guess my goal?

You got it.

I WILL… Complete my first Ironman triathlon. 

Just so happens the contest ends on the day of my Ironman. Must be fate!

Welcome to My Blog!

Nicole Dobransky

I’m Nicole. I’m a runner, mom to three girls (including twins!), and fitness lover who attempts to live a life of balance as a pizza, craft beer and coffee lover. I live and train near the ocean in San Diego and always keep it real here – there are lots of failures along with my successes in these pages, but what you’ll never see me do is give up!

I am a former accountant who started this blog from a place of absolute passion and love for health and fitness. I’ve now turned it into a way for me to reach and help more people as a health & fitness coach & it’s my mission to help as many women as possible achieve their own goals. I’ve brought hundreds of women into my community and helped them gain confidence and happiness through either my monthly accountability groups or by following their dreams as an online coach as well!

If you’d like to reach out to me for any reason, contact me at fitnessfataleblog at gmail dot com!

Let’s Get Stronger, Healthier & Faster Together!

I am a virtual health and fitness coach who specializes in working with runners and busy moms. While weight loss is a result of our programs, women in my groups often find that they have more energy, confidence and happiness after joining which is even better!!!

I help runners boost their run training and prevent injury with home strength training workouts and nutrition guidance.

Upcoming Accountability Groups:

March 1: 6 Week Run + Strength Race Training Group- Train for a virtual or in person 5K, 10K or Half Marathon with a professional running plan incorporating Beachbody workouts with a community of runners!!!

Ongoing: 9 Week Control Freak support group - start any Monday through Spring!
