The Season That Means More Than All the Rest Combined
25 seasons in, one super playoff, and the school-credit dream that started a decade ago.
I've run more @functionalfitnessleague matches and events than some experienced coaches have run classes, but this upcoming season means more to me than all prior combined.
Not just because we're partnering with @canadian_functional_fitness to host the first-ever multi-day super playoff event, but because if we can make that event what it deserves to be, it'll help show the Canadian government that Functional Fitness is a sport Canadians care about—getting me one step closer to my real dream...
When I opened @raincityathls a decade ago, I dreamed of kids coming to my gym and earning PE credit for working out with their parents, being part of a healthy community. I imagined my coaches being hired to teach the proper mechanics of an air squat or a burpee in schools.
If I can legitimize FF as a sport in Canada, I can finally make that happen. One of the biggest hurdles? Awareness.
Functional Fitness isn’t here to replace @crossfit, @hyroxworld, obstacle racing, or anything else. We're here to legitimize the umbrella so we can access grant funding—and, more importantly, so I can finally get my @raincityfitclub kids school credit for all the torture I put them through (jkjk 😉).
So I’m asking for your help. I have 💯 confidence in my ability to run incredible events—if you've been part of any of the 25 FFL seasons or playoffs I’ve run, you know that's true...
The only thing I don’t know how to do? Get the word out.
I'll be sharing a LOT of videos and content over the coming weeks. If you can help spread the word, I’d appreciate it more than you can ever imagine 🙏
