Something a little different from me. So how how about some Lifestyle Promo Photography with Yvonne Worthington from Bolton Lancashire?
We met Yvonne at her sisters wedding that we shot a few years back. Since then we have done a couple of family shoots with Yvonne and her lovely family.
Yvonne runs her own business and loves to keep fit. She decided to put her fitness to the ultimate test and entered herself into IronMan. She approached us to capture both disciplines as she wasn’t sure if she would carry on with her triathlon training after the event, so wanted some images to remember her training for such a huge achievement in her life.
“I run my own business under the Umbrella of a phenomenal company with a superior natural product range. I was particularly impressed by the sports supplements and wanted to put these products to the test.
Inspired by a good friend and business partner of mine, I decided to take part in what I consider to be the most ultimate fitness challenge. A 2.4 mile open water swim, 112 mile bike ride and a 26.2 mile run to finish. A 17 hour cut off was the time limit to complete the course.
I embarked on a 8 month training plan consisting of early mornings and late nights, and my weekends were consumed by early open water swims, long rides, and brick run sessions. I used my 8 months to practice my supplementation and nutrition plan for the day. And with the range of products I had on offer, I knew I couldn’t go far wrong.
I had everything covered from keeping my immune system in tip top condition, absorption, energy during training, amino acids, recovery, even keeping my calories up as I was burning a heck of a lot. And all this prep served me well on the day. Being a complete novice to Triathlon before I embarked on this challenge I worked my butt off for 8 months, and completed the course in a very respectable 14hours 32 minutes and earned my red carpet moment, and it was an amazing feeling to hear those magical words….Yvonne Worrhington, You are an Ironman.”
