HILLSBOROUGH, NJ — Shannon Kelly, a personal trainer, health coach, and bodybuilder in Hillsborough has advanced to the top 5 before advancing to the finals of the Ms. Health & Fitness 2020 competition for Muscle & Fitness Hers magazine.
Kelly is currently in third place in her group and needs to be in first by Thursday at 11 p.m. in order to advance to the finals. The winner will win a cover shoot on the magazine and $20,000.
“Gosh. Every ‘Vote for Me!’ reminder that I post on social media makes my heart jump; excited and anxious, but not doubtful for once. My community is admirable and full of joy to see me go the distance here. I am connected to so many people near and far. It’s one of my favorite parts of this contest that whether I see/speak to someone seldom, daily, or never even met — I have immense support and encouragement! I’m like joyously sweating right now thinking about all of this,” Kelly said.
Kelly is from Somerville and trains locals at her studio For The Love Of Sweat at 170 Township Line Road in Hillsborough. For more information on Kelly and her fitness career visit .
Kelly previously competed in the magazine competition in 2018 but did not win.
For those who wish to support Kelly, there is free voting available daily through Facebook. .
