Leslie admittedly had a few months over this past winter when she fell off a bit, and lost some of her focus and consistency, BUT she has come back in recent months firing on all cylinders! She consistently attends 530am classes Monday through Friday, and even sticks around for after for RowZ and her own cardio to hit 250+ MEPS DAILY!

For our Summer Challenges she is on pace to hit the Peak of Mount Kilimanjaro and already well over 100+ Workouts!

Way to go Leslie! 💪

What can I say about Kelly?!? 🤔

To be honest, she might just be the BEST example of what I envisioned a “Zoner” to be when I started The Zone in 2019.

When Kelly showed up day one in 2021 she came in smiling, full of energy and positivity. It’s now 5+ years later, and that hasn’t changed a bit. She has dialed into each and every crazy challenge we’ve had here;

💪 Multiple MEP LEAGUES where she won THE BELT!

🛡️ Competing in the Gladiator Challenge

🚲 multiple All-Day rides at

🏃‍♀️ Completing both the NEW YORK and BERLIN Marathons with !

And many more!

I am very grateful to have Kelly as part of our Fit Fam. She certainly makes it a happier, healthier and more fun place!

Congrats Kelly!!! 💪❤️
