THROWDOWN 2015

Competition unites people.
Creating new bonds and strengthening the old ones.
Stirring emotions that at times cannot be expressed in words—
it requires a sweaty hug. 

For someone who rarely is at a loss for something to say, it's been difficult to get this blog post started as my thoughts and emotions flood my tired little brain. 

There aren't words to adequately describe my pride for our members; they worked their asses off this weekend in the rain, heat and sun and though muddy, sore and spent each one still mustered up enough energy to cheer on their fellow Fit Pit'rs... even DURING the workouts... pushing each other to the finish.

"Redefining Your Limits" is what Fit Pit and Throwdown are all about.  Two weeks ago some of our athletes would have told you, with complete sincerity, they would not be able to do double unders, thruster 65#, push a sled loaded with double their body weight or drag a 100# / 100' long fire hose up a muddy hill; but once they found themselves in the moment, with BELIEF thick in the air as their peers cheered them on — each one REDEFINED their own limits.

Today each athlete feels a whole lot more BAD ASS as they roll into work, knowing they accomplished something big this weekend and no matter what may get thrown on their desk between 8am and 5pm they KNOW they can handle it... then take a deep breath, grab a swig of water and take on the next challenge.

I've said it before and here I go again...
Creating a unique, progressive, safe and clean environment to foster health and wellness is hard work and can be challenging at times; but when you have members like ours... it's the very best job in the world and worth every bit of effort. I'm blessed to have the opportunity to coach this group of people and enjoy their friendship.

THANK YOU Fit Pit members for another successful THROWDOWN!
Mark your calendars for JUNE 10-12, 2016!
