Fun with Fitness

It’s Turkey Trot time!!! It’s been a while since we’ve been able to run a challenge within the fitness center and this was always a crowd favorite. This year I am putting a little twist on it. Our turkey trot will begin Thursday Nov 18th and end Thursday Nov 25th, 2021. Participants will have the opportunity to earn “feathers” on their turkey by participating in group fitness classes, Fun with Fitness hitting preset mile markers using the cardio machines, BY KRISSIE AYLWARD, and hitting attendance goals. Each participant will be PFCCA FITNESS DIRECTOR given their own tracker sheet to log their workouts. Yes, we work on the honor system however, I’m able to check attendance and class participation, so no cheating!Please see me to sign up and get your personal tracker sheet. This challenge is FREE however you must be a fitness center member to participate. Prizes will be given at the end for different categories as well.

Fun Turkey Facts and the twist to the trot:

Did you know turkeys are intelligent and sensitive animals that are highly social? They create lasting social bonds with each other and are very affectionate; rather like dogs. The fitness center is the perfect place to socialize and meet new people. Still have those 2021 fitness vouchers? Bring a friend in to the fitness center and you’ll receive extra “feathers” on your turkey. Did you know an adult gobbler weighs 16 to 22 pounds on average, has a beard of modified feathers on his breast that reaches seven inches or more long, and has sharp spurs on his legs for fighting. A hen is smaller, weighing around 8 to 12 pounds, and has no beard or spurs. Turkeys can run at speeds of up to 25 miles per hour and fly as fast as 55 miles per hour. The fitness center has added new cardio equipment over the last couple years. A spin bike and ellipticals to be exact. Use these machines to hit 25 or 55 miles and you’ll earn extra “feathers” on turkey as well. Let’s get to trotting friends! See you soon and remember it’s easy to join the fitness center you just need to trot in and see us. As always thank you for your kind words and support I appreciate all of it!!! Krissie
