Saying goodbye to a very big part of our gym and it's character, we had a farewell workout and BBQ for Jesse on Friday night. Jesse has been with us from the very start and has been an absolute mainstay of the gym and one of it's biggest supporters. It has been an absolute pleasure working with you and seeing you grow over the years Jesse. You inspire not only me but everyone that comes to the gym and does a workout with you. I feel honoured to have witnessed a part of your life that was filled with obstacles that you have had to overcome and your perseverance to overcome them has been one of absolute legend. That perseverance has lead you to success and I am excited to see you continue to succeed and persevere. All the best in Vancouver and your new adventures!
