Unhealthy Parents

My girls.

The girls had a triathlon this past weekend at the Air Force base, which was a lot of fun for them. One thing I noticed while I was there is how many kids were competing as compared to the adult one just a few weeks earlier; there must have been 50 -60 kids as compared to the 20 or so at the adult one (which Angela won by the way). There were more than a few overweight parents cheering on their little athlete while sipping on a 500 cal "Latte". Next time you are at the park or play ground check out the parents vs the kids. What I think you"ll see is happy active kids with overweight parents sitting on the sideline setting the example. I guess my point is how can we expect the child weight, health, activity and type II diabetes problem to get better when the parents aren't even setting a good example.
Unhealthy parents don't make healthy kids.


If you have time watch the video he makes some good points.



Our youth fitness program is coming soon.

Race Day

Angela and Alyssa competed in the Wunder Women Triathlon in Medical Lake this Sunday.
They both did very well and had a great time racing. The bulk of their training was done at CrossFit Spokane with some biking and a little swimming here and there. Training with CrossFit Spokane will allow you do things you never thought possible.
Great Job Ladies!


Oh No, is he done?

BAMM!!! Not a chance.

Pat worked ridiculously hard during this workout. It was awesome.
