True Grit 2024 - A Test of Endurance, Resilience, and Camaraderie

Ann-Marie Antic • April 30, 2024
The members who attended True Grit truly embodied the spirit of perseverance and determination as they tackled each obstacle on the course. From the moment they set foot on the muddy terrain, it was evident that they were ready to give it their all and conquer whatever challenges lay ahead.

With unwavering focus and grit, they approached each obstacle with determination, refusing to back down in the face of adversity. Whether it was scaling towering walls, crawling through muddy trenches, or navigating through tangled ropes, they met each challenge head-on and emerged victorious.

What was most impressive was not just their physical strength, but also their resilience and strong mindset. Despite the fatigue and exhaustion that inevitably set in, they pushed through with unwavering determination, refusing to let any obstacle defeat them. Their mental fortitude was truly inspiring, serving as a testament to their incredible strength of character.

A special shoutout goes to the younger kids who fearlessly took on the course alongside the adults. Despite their age, they showed remarkable courage and determination, giving it their all and having a blast every step of the way. In fact, their energy and enthusiasm put some of us adults to shame, reminding us that age is just a number when it comes to tackling challenges and having fun.

Overall, True Grit was not just a test of physical endurance, but also a celebration of camaraderie, resilience, and sheer determination. With beautiful weather adding to the atmosphere, it was a day filled with laughter, camaraderie, and unforgettable memories. And as we all proudly don our event t-shirts as badges of honor, we carry with us the pride of knowing that we faced our fears, pushed our limits, and emerged stronger together.

We all know stretching is good for us... but let’s be honest — most of us skip it. Myself included. Up until two months ago, I’d fallen out of the habit of doing my usual 5–10 minutes of daily stretching. But since getting back into it, the results have been undeniable: ◼️ Less stiffness ◼️ Faster recovery from training ◼️ Noticeable improvements in my performance And the best part? It didn’t take long, nor were complicated routines or hour-long yoga sessions required. Just 5–10 minutes a day , consistently. That’s it.
