The Coach dishes it out like a pro!

Hello to all You Wonderful WOW Women and Interested Readers,

I think about this group all the time. Maybe too often.

Visions of women, who have been with us in the past and do not come anymore, pop into my head… Sonia, Peggy, Stephaney, Marnie, Barbara, Ludy, Susan, Erica, Pam and many more. What are you doing now? Why did you stop coming?

The WOW Team has been in existence since 2006 and I was coaching some of you well before that time. The lives of the members have touched me deeply. In the time that we have known each other we have changed as our lives have continued – some changes have been good and some have been just plain rotten; some events have been joyous, and some intensely sad; we have all seen success and failure during that time. But what keeps some of us coming back and stops others from returning? I want you to know that, when you stop coming, I notice. I miss you. Each one of you makes a difference to me and to the WOW Team.

I miss the relationship and opportunity to share fitness with you. I miss your friendship and seeing your growth as an athlete. Additionally, what I have seen, over several years, is that the friendships that have developed from those of you who have kept coming are significant.

We have a special connection because of our commitment to each other through WOW along with a respect for our lives outside of this group. We come together to share a lifetime goal of fitness. What we look like, how much money we make; what political party we belong to; all fall outside of the scope of judgment of the WOW Team.

If you are a committed member of the WOW Team, thank you and keep coming! If you have fallen by the wayside, for whatever reason, please know that we want you back. When you return we will all be better because of it.

The time is now…
