It has been a difficult emotional few weeks, capped off by a great last Eastside Fitness workout today. I can’t express how grateful I am for all of the people that have affected my life over these past 3 years at Eastside. I told the workout crew this morning about a quote from my Dad that is a favorite of mine. “When you meet someone even if it’s only for 5 minutes, you become a different person forever because they bring something to the table that is unique and different from anyone else in the world.” It is for this reason that you glean something a little different from everyone you meet. I am thankful for the way Eastside Fitness has shaped me and changed me, and specifically for the people that have not only been so kind to me but to one another. I operate from a worldview where I believe everything happens for a reason, and even though I will be transitioning out of the world of gym ownership I believe God had these last 3 years planned for a purpose and a special reason. Thank you to all who played a part big and small. I wish Set the Bar Fitness the best moving forward as they continue to provide Fitness opportunities for the local community from here on out. -Keenan
