​

• What do you do outside of our facility to stay active and busy? I run outside and have trained for several races. Mostly, I stay active by playing with my kids! We go on hikes, bike rides, visit parks and playgrounds.

​

• What is something we might not know about you? I was a cheerleader. In high school I was chosen to cheer at the Pro Bowl (and stood behind Tom Brady!).

​

• What is your favorite New England Winter activity? I have a very low tolerance for the cold... I enjoy watching my kids build snowmen from the window with a hot cup of coffee. That being said, most of my race training has happened outdoors, in the winter. 

​

• What is your greatest achievement at Roots so far?  My greatest achievement was running a half marathon. Before joining Roots I had never done much distance running. Tread and Shred, specifically, was a huge part of my training. 

​

• What's your advice to new members looking to join our Fitness Center?  Try all the classes! The instructors are encouraging and supportive. I have never felt self conscious or pushed beyond my ability level. The Roots community is welcoming and far from “just a gym”. 

​

• Do you have anything to add?   Thank you to Roots for providing a wide variety of programs. The instructors put an enormous amount of consideration and effort into their classes, from the choreography to the playlists.
