It’s the supportive community that encourages members to try new fitness challenges. I am doing more than I thought I was capable of achieving. The instructors and members have stories of overcoming health issues and personal difficulties that inspire me to keep going both inside and outside of the gym. Plus, the time goes by faster when you work out with others. Lynn and Cheryl think of creative ways to make the workouts fun! What do you do in your spare time? In my spare time I started to learn to play the ukulele about 2 years ago. I also enjoy scrapbooking and card making, teaching 4 and 5 year olds at my church, volunteering with the costume crew at Marietta Theater, and trips to Alaska to visit my daughter and her family. What is your favorite motivational/fitness quote? My favorite quote is “You don’t have to see the whole staircase, just take the first steps. |
