Josh Y. has been training at Snap Fitness to prep for several races he competes in. He participates in large obstacle course races like The Tough Mudder and The Spartan Race. He enjoys that these races challenge him both physically and mentally and give him a sense of camaraderie on the course.

To get ready for these races, Josh does a lot of functional fitness training. “This involves strength, endurance, agility and speed. Snap Fitness is a great place to come to work at all these aspects,” he says.

Josh shared that recently both his mom and wife were diagnosed with breast cancer. “It has really motivated me to keep training hard and do the best that I can do to make them proud.”

He says of his wife, “seeing her at the finish line gives me another sense of accomplishment. I’m not only doing it for myself, I am doing it for her.”

Way to go, Josh! If you have a story to share, submit your Snap Story on our Member Stories page.
