Here's a few photos taken at 'FIT at the River, on Stone and River in Tucson. More photos coming.
I've been asked to write a story on this motley crew, so here goes. In the first photo from left to right in the back we have Todd a personal trainer, one of the owners of FIT at the River. His partner Steve, will be photographed and plastered on this page soon. Second is Brian, also a personal trainer. He trains me (I call it abuse), and he does a good job, but I think he's trying to kill me. Next is trainer Jeff. Jeff is a quiet guy around the gym, but I'll bet he isn't when he's partying. Lastly in that row is Taz. Taz trains the geriatric crowd - should I say rehabilitates. He's a quiet guy with a dry sense of humor. In the front is a cute little chickadee named Kristy. She has a great attitude and takes a lot of abuse from the guys there. Of course not from me, I wouldn't think of teasing her. :) She's a doll! In the next photo is Rudy. Rudy trains with Brian (the guy hugging him) just before I do. Rudy will attest to the abuse we take. He's been sent to the doctor's office three times while training. That Brian is tough. LOL Sitting behind the desk is Vicki. She is one of the nicest most polite ladies I've ever met. She's also a trainer. Listen guys! You'll work harder and train better in front of a woman so why not get over to this gym and give Vicki a try. :) Sitting in the torture chair is Angie. She's a masseuse and a very good one. She's also a very nice lady with a good sense of humor. Here's a little secret - she can't say no. To a doughnut - that is! Have you ever been to a gym where everybody got along so good that the clients take turns bringing in food? I saw a lady carry in a whole bag of grapefruit. Then a lovely young lady Amy, who works out brutally with Jeff, brought in some Salsa. Of course Rudy went out and got chips to go with it. Another half hour on the treadmill - Rudy. Next day, Rudy brought in doughnuts. Another two hours on the treadmill. I think Rudy is in the treadmill business - not the bakery business. Anyway, Angie couldn't resist a doughnut. The older folks who train (rehab) there must think the younger crowd is nuts. Eat your heart out! Come to think of it - that's what the doughnuts will do for you. There are a few others I'd like to get photos of and will try. There's Christa, who is a very cute little blond with a great figure and there's a cute physical therapist with dark hair (don't know here name) and Matt who owns the PT division. (I think I got that right. If not, I have no doubt that they will correct me.) Shannon is working hard to get in shape (it's working), and I'm sorry I won't be around to watch her do that this summer. She certainly brightens the place and makes it more fun to be there. Amy shown with Jeff is the salsa lady mentioned above. She is a very nice lady and works very hard in the gym. Of course I had to get a photo of me in there. The final photo is of Dr. Steve Knope who has a medical practice there at the Heart Hospital. Dr. Knope's practice is, Internal Medicine. (Gee.. I wonder what external medicine is. Could that be what most guys practice? Anyone for a game of doctor?) :) Well that's if for this year. See you in the fall. I love that place. Joe P.s.: Thanks for all the entertainment, Shannon. Heheh! December 1999
