This months m.o.t.m began at New U 10 years ago and soon became a very special part of our coaching family♡
Over the years, I have witnessed her dedication, strength through adversity, discipline and love for fitness and helping others live a healthier lifestyle.
She is a very inspirational athlete who just keeps challenging herself and showing up no matter what life throws her way.
Congratulations Corrie. You are AMAZING!!!!
We love you beyond words!!!!
This month, I am thrilled to be nominated as the member of the month. New U has taught me the true meaning of "fitness" in every sense of the word. It’s not just about one class; I’ve loved the high-energy, discipline, passion, and, most importantly, balance that has come to my life. I have always seen myself as just a runner and now I know there is so much more.
“Master of Multisport Balance.”
Whether I am crushing a long-distance weekend bike ride, setting a new pace on a morning run, flowing through mobility work in yoga, smashing a CrossFit style wod or meticulously learning Olympic lifting techniques, I’ve learned to do with focus and balance, consistency and endurance, enjoying every aspect of each sport to become a more rounded athlete. My coach, Alison, has helped and shaped me through my training over my 10 years at New U; from my first marathon to competing in CrossFit to now Olympic lifting.
Balancing high-intensity training with endurance and recovery is no easy feat,
structuring my week, often pairing strength training with cycling to days of yoga and mobility. NewU shows that you don't have to choose between being strong, being fast, or being flexible—you can be all three.
* Strength & Power: From CrossFit to the new obsession with Olympic lifting, I’m embracing the technical challenge, focusing on form and explosiveness.
* Endurance & Cardio: You'll often find me biking or hiking, maintaining that aerobic base that complements my strength work.
* Balance & Recovery: I’ve learned to balance hard workouts with yoga, maintaining mobility and preventing injury.
I am very thankful to be a part of the coaching team at NewU. I try to live a balanced life as an athlete as well as in my coaching. “Lift, run: cycle and stretch all areas that are so important for a balanced life, multiple disciplines to build a resilient, capable body". I thank New U for being a huge inspiration in my life!
