I was working with a personal trainer out of town, and just not seeing the results I wanted.  I drove past Degree every morning on my way to work, and after several months of seeing it every day, I decided to book an intro.

Finishing my first class!!!  It was such a satisfying experience!

I was TERRIFIED!  Everyone seemed so STRONG and new exactly what they were doing.  I thought “There is no way I can do that.” After doing my one on one on-ramp, my views radically changed.  The coaches walked me through everything and made sure I had the basics down and the confidence to hold my own during group classes.  I realized we all started in the same place, and everyone was incredibly supportive.

I’m working on my upper body strength.  One day I will complete a pull up!

I can’t decide between two…  it’s a toss up between participating in Tough Mudder last year, and all of us going down the last slide as a group, or the 19.2 open workout.  I finished dead last in my heat, and it didn’t matter.  I was tired, sweaty, and ready to quit.  But everyone cheering me on to the last second was AMAZING and made me realize no one was judging me, just supporting me.
