I'm instructing one of the Group Exercise classes, Y.F.I.T. in the EXER-THON portion of the fundraiser!  As the Y.F.I.T. trainer and creator I've set myself a hefty goal of $2000 to raise as a representative of the YMCA.  Who doesn't a love a little friendly competition?!  We're all in this together! 

Cancer hits home for me, I lost my grandmother in 2004 after her second battle with it.  She was a pillar in the community and always the first one to help everyone!  (Crying as I write this, if you knew her you know how truely amazing she was).. She's probably a large part of the reason I'm always quick to jump on a cause.  Anyhow we are always raising money and awareness for Cancer research, and there are tons of programs setup for that (don't get me wrong we need them)! But we also need programs like LIVESTRONG - to help the survivors afterward.  Health & Wellness are so important for people to stay healthy in remission, and LIVESTRONG is a great program the YMCA offers free to survivors.

Fitness and the YMCA are both big parts of my life.  i can't imagine not having the relationships I've established being part of the YMCA.  Help me hit my personal goal for this event, so we can make this fundraiser a huge success and keep our LIVESTRONG program strong!  

THANK YOU & GOD BLESS :)
