I HAD THE DRIVE, BUT LACKED THE ENERGY."

"With a vigorous three-to-five-day-a week training schedule, Katie Felker certainly had the discipline and determination to compete in triathlons and other athletic events. But even in her great physical condition, Katie battled morning headaches and nausea. Frustrated, Katie sought sports and fitness products that would help increase her energy levels, maintain a healthy stress level and, most importantly, peak her athletic performance.

"I MADE WELLNESS MY NUMBER ONE PRIORITY."
To help better manage her eating habits and further curb her tendency toward sugar, Katie first incorporated the Thermojetics® Green Weight Management Programme into her training regimen. Within days, her energy skyrocketed. “My times improved tremendously, which led to my best finishes ever,” recalls Katie. In a triathlon just last summer, Katie finished ninth out of 190 women. And last fall, Katie completed a half-marathon in her best time ever at 1 hour and 39 minutes–and finished 15th out of 480!

"I LOOK AND FEEL LIKE A TRIATHLETE!"
As a triathlete and physical-education teacher, the concept of health and wellness holds a deeper meaning for Katie. “Because I teach the importance of an active and healthy lifestyle, it’s imperative that I also live that lifestyle,” she stresses. And live it she does. Katie is currently training for the Country Music half-marathon in Tennessee and several triathlons in the Wisconsin area. “My ultimate goals is to compete in the IRONMAN Madison Triathlon in the fall of 2004,” beams Katie. “And with Herbalife, I’ll be there!”* How I did it:
