Great facts about You : I grew up in NJ. Moved to MA about 10 years ago and I love it!

How long have you been an MBC teammate? A little over a year. I joined in September of 2009.

What about MBC separates itself from other programs you have been involved in? Every day is different. I used to go to the gym on a regular basis and found myself getting bored. MBC is a great way to “spice” up your work out routine. I also love the team atmosphere. We all encourage each other to be better.

What are your current fitness goals? In the past year and a half I have really gotten into running. I have been training to run longer and also get faster. MBC has really helped me do both. I would also love to run a marathon in the future.

Most recent fitness accomplishment? I have run some of my personal best 5k and 10k races in the past two months. I will also be participating in my first half marathon this month.

If you had one word to describe the program, what would it be? Motivating

Any advice you want to share with new members considering joining the program? Definitely join! One of the things that I love is that MBC allows you to go at your own pace or modify certain exercises if they don’t suit you. You get a great workout that you can personalize for you!
