Performance Running Group

Do you have dreams or aspirations of running a 10K, half-marathon, or even a full marathon this year? Maybe it will be your first long distance event or maybe it will be your 20th. Whatever your goal, now is the time to get out and build that foundation for achieving your goal. We will be starting a Performance Running Group geared towards helping those to increase their speed and improve their cardio endurance for longer events. Here are the details:

What: Track workouts
When: Every Thursday for 5 weeks starting February 11th, 6:30 am - 7:30 am
Where: Chief Sealth H.S. Track
Why: To have others push you faster than you have gone before
Weather: Workouts will be run rain, snow, or shine

Contact the studio for details on cost and sign-ups. We look forward to seeing you in lane 1 in February.

Outdoor Activities

All that hard work in the studio pays off when you can get out to enjoy it. Shannon sent a photo from her recent foray into our back yard. She ventured out with her husband to the Snoqualmie Pass area for a little snowshoeing over the holiday. As Shannon reminds us: "(Snowshoeing is)Another great way to get out there and get some exercise and enjoy the snow!!"

Looks like a great day to be out exploring and a good reminder to not let the weather keep you from enjoying what our fine state has to offer.

January Client of the Month - Carmen Hernandez

We start off the New Year with a well deserving Client of the Month Award for January. Carmen was a unanimous choice by all of the staff. With 2 little ones at home to take care of, her time is very valuable. She squeezes every ounce of sweat out in her time at the studio. In addition, she inspires her husband to lead a healthy lifestyle. Great job with your accomplishments and here is to staying ahead of the little ones as they get bigger.

On being selected as Client of the Month, this is what Carmen had to say about her experience at Fitness Together. "Thanks to the training, nutrition program, and advice from the F.T. team my goals are now to not only loose weight but to be conscious about the food I am fueling my body with. Joining F.T. has been the greatest investment I've ever made for my health and well-being. A bit of enthusiastic shouting, "Go Carmen go" and "Go faster", does it for me, they push me to the max with each workout. Each trainer has their own style of working out, which mixes things up and everyday is unique and non-repetitious. I am so excited for my new and improved life-style, thank you all at F.T.!!! Thanks again!"
