Early life

Erin Elyse Stern was born on February 5, 1980, to a religious Jewish family. Erin Elyse Stern was born in a family of athletes. Her father played football for C.W. Post and Adelphi University, and her mother ran three miles a day. She started horse riding in competitions at a young age, and later developed a passion for running, just like her mother, which led her to her track career.

Education

Stern followed her father’s advice when he encouraged her to win a collegiate scholarship to the University of Florida, where she earned Junior All-American status in the high jump [2] Erin attended the University of Florida where she graduated with a BA in Environmental Policy.

Bodybuilding career

Last 3 Centimeters

As a Junior All-American at the University of Florida, Erin Stern had been competing in pentathlons and heptathlons. She missed the qualifying standard for the Beijing Olympics by three centimeters.

Dejected, Erin Stern was forced to give up her Olympics dreams. “I’m a little short for a high-jumper,” says the statuesque 5-foot-8 Stern, chuckling. “I gave it my all, but I couldn’t make the last three centimeters.” [3]
