What inspired you to become a Fitzness Ambassador?
When it comes to fitness I feel like everyone has a story of what started their journey. Mine started when I was young and felt very discouraged to be healthy and exercise because I got back surgery from scoliosis so felt like I couldn’t do anything since my surgery hindered me from doing the normal things I used to do. I then got introduced to running, and the running community and then my gym where I met so many amazing and inspiring people and want to continue to be a part of that community.
