Hello all,
This coming Sunday, February 28, 2010, at the Oak Brook Lululemon, at 6 pm, we will be kicking off the official "Lifestyle Challenge". Let me explain a bit the background and how the program is going to run.
The purpose behind the challenge was simple - getting people to truly commit to living a healthier lifestlye, by imporving diet and exercise. And when I say exercise, we will be utilizing the 3 main components of triathlon, something I consider to be one of the purest and easiest forms of cross-training. When I say "easy" I mean easy in the sense that anyone can do it. I say this because I have seen all shapes and sizes at races across the country, and if one thing triathlon is, its all encompassing. All walks of life can do it, and that includes you.
I know many people make that new year's resolution - "I'm going to be fitter this year, or healthier or eat better, or get in shape", and its usually around this time that the adreline rush of the new year has worn off and we fall into our old routines. Well this is opportunity to get that boost to keep going. We will be providing training, clinics of all varieties from a great group of ambassadors, elite and pro athletes and top level coaches. This program is 100% hands on, and with the assistance of Rick Lapinksi, Cheryl Scigousky, The Bike Shop in Glen Ellyn, Accelerated Rehad in Darien, which is Gina Pongetti and her top flight crew, this Challenge stands to be one of the best chances for you to get out and get fit. Meet people of similar backgrounds, find training partners, discover things about yourself that you never dreamed possible.
And at the end of it, come June, you don't even have to race. True, you'll have all the tools necessary to do so, but the most important thing, getting healthy. Best part - this is all FREE courtesy of your friendly crew at Lululemon Oakbrook.
So, tell your friends, tell your family, tell the guy who just sat down next to you on the train, who won't get off his cell phone. The more the merrier. Look forward to seeing you on Sunday night. You may have spent the better part of your life doing something for someone else, now its time to do something positive for you.
Stay strong,
Guy
