Next Tuesday from 11:30-12:30 I will be speaking at Take Ten Body Therapy as part of their Commit to Wellness in 2010 program. I will focus not only on what fitness is but how to find out why you want to be fit. If your in the downtown area at lunch time grab some friends and stop by. I promise no burpees, well maybe.

Our friends at Evolved Body Art are organizing the Quincy Davis Race on March 27, 2010. The proceeds from the race go to help Quincy's family pay the medical bills left after Quincy past away from prostate cancer in February. It would be great if we had a big turn out. Look at the link above, check your schedule and get back to me.

Fit Club will have a water station and provide volunteer support for the Cap City Half Marathon and Commit to be Fit 5k on May 1st.

The first person to claim the free entry was Aaron Blaine, If Aaron is unable to make it I will give it to the next member to claim it. Lets get a big turn out to support Aaron and everyone else running.

The CrossFit Games Central East Regional will be held in Logan, Ohio on May 8th & 9th. It is too late to compete but volunteers are still needed for a variety of activities. If you have the time this is well worth it. Contact me if your interested.
