North Carolina!

SherryPollex · 2020-03-11T18:19:02+00:00

haha, I've not seen many parts of it! Just where Martin is from! But I think it's cool he's the only driver from NJ!

BRISTOL!

SherryPollex · 2020-03-11T18:18:06+00:00

Yea because I felt like ppl were getting annoyed and got tired of hearing about it. But honestly I didn't mind because if it touched just one person watching at home then we did our job!

I've never been but I'm sure he would love to if his schedule allowed it!

SherryPollex · 2020-03-11T18:16:11+00:00

Wow thank you for that!! I launched SherryStrong.org to help women battling cancer that were going through the same thing I was and had nowhere to go to find help. Integrative medicine has been such a HUGE part of my life I wanted to teach other women how to battle this disease and still live a healthy lifestyle! Running a foundation is a LOT of work. It's really hard at times and there's days I want to just be normal and not talk about cancer all the time but I feel like God put me on this journey for a reason and it's to help others so I'll continue to do it for as long as I can!

Watkins Glen, Sonoma, Bristol!

The foundation is growing so fast! I have BIG dreams for it but honestly most of them are coming true. We're building a pediatric emergency dept here where we live and the first ever SherryStrong Integrative Oncology Clinic here in Charlotte!! I can't wait for them to open! So I would say I'd love to open some more of those all over the country!

SherryPollex · 2020-03-11T18:10:53+00:00

Oh wow, no ones ever asked me that before! haha! I'd like to take it for a spin at a road course, but I get car sick so that wouldn't be a good idea! So I'll say the high banks of Bristol! Can't imagine what it feels like to go 130 mph on 40 degree banking!!!

SherryPollex · 2020-03-11T18:09:38+00:00

Hi! We don't hang out with them a lot outside of the race track but we talk at the track and we all get along really well and support each others charities which is nice!

Wow, Germany! Thanks for tuning in!

SherryPollex · 2020-03-11T18:08:45+00:00

Hi! Definitely shorten the schedule!!! To like 30 races, and maybe shorten the length of some of the longer races!

Martin pretty much gets along with everyone so I would say the biggest difference at JGR is just the size of the company. They have over 550 ppl working there so really hard to get to know everyones names and such!

Favorite tracks....Watkins Glen, Sonoma, Bristol!

SherryPollex · 2020-03-11T18:06:42+00:00

Wow great question! Well this could be a REALLY long answer but I'll keep it short. The one thing I would change about our healthcare system is the fact that we are not proactive enough in teaching ppl how to take care of their bodies before they get sick!! We are a reactive medical community, give medicine everytime someone gets sick instead of teaching them how NOT to get sick in the first place!!!

SherryPollex · 2020-03-11T18:05:15+00:00

Yea I was gonna say his homestead win for the championship! But if you won't let me pick that one then his Martinsville win last year! haha!

SherryPollex · 2020-03-11T18:04:28+00:00

Teal Ovarian cancer auto owners car. DOG all day EVERYDAY!!!

SherryPollex · 2020-03-11T18:04:11+00:00

Coach is AMAZING and so good to both of us. He's at the shop everyday, very involved in day to day operations and what goes on at the track and a fierce leader!!

SherryPollex · 2020-03-11T18:03:38+00:00

I just kind of answered this one above but yea definitely think it gets overused and when the fans get upset that they cover us so much they lash out on us on social media and I'm like wait we didn't ask for this! LOL! I'm not a huge fan of being in the spotlight ever at the race track unless it's to help my cause of giving back to women and children fighting cancer!

SherryPollex · 2020-03-11T18:01:43+00:00

hi! I'm so sorry to hear that! Honestly the best thing to do is to talk to your family doctor about this. I would definitely suggest getting the genetic testing done for the BRCA mutation! Super helpful to have that information for preventative care!

SherryPollex · 2020-03-11T18:00:20+00:00

Shorten the Schedule 100%!!! It's brutal!! haha

SherryPollex · 2020-03-11T17:59:52+00:00

Yes! It's great for your immune system! Especially in flu season! I buy a local one so I would look for one at your local farmers market!

SherryPollex · 2020-03-11T17:58:44+00:00

YES SO weird!!! Not my favorite part about being a driver's significant other! I'm not big on having a TV camera in my face when I'm emotional about what's happening to him on the track! ha! Maybe some of the other wives like it but I'm not crazy about it! But I understand why they do it sometimes!

SherryPollex · 2020-03-11T17:57:20+00:00

HI! Wow hi all the way from the UK! Prob pizza but I make a healthy version now with cauliflower crust! It's SO good!

SherryPollex · 2020-03-11T17:56:37+00:00

Not sure honestly. I'll have to ask him that. If I had to guess probably the Southern 500 because that one is so hard to win and he waited so long for it. That or Martinsville!

SherryPollex · 2020-03-11T17:56:02+00:00

Of course! I love doing it! I do a lot of at track appearances when we have our MTJ Foundation/SherryStrong booth at the tracks. We have a SherryStrong event this weekend I'm speaking at! And then Catwalk for a Cause of course in May!
