Gym Updates

Progress!

• 2 new Rogue Echo bikes have been delivered to the gym. We have one more on the way.

• 2 new Rogue flat benches are at Pisgah (now we have one for each station at the rig!).

• Front room and bathrooms are painted, new trim, and we have a new door on one bathroom.

• The toilet and shower are good to go in the “old” bathroom (the one connected to the main floor). We still have to replace the sink and vanity in there. Both showers need to be cleaned but I hope to get to that today (Saturday).

What’s next?

• New commercial floor scrubber coming Tuesday to use on the rubber mat rolls.

• Roll-away dumpster coming Wednesday to collect all the trash we’re producing and that is collecting in the front lot.

• We’ll have to replace a bunch of monitors on the rowers.

• There was some damage to the plumbing with the sink in the front bathroom. We’ll get started on that.

• I’m getting rid of the big lockers and replacing with open cubbies. If you had stuff in those lockers, I’m putting them in bags and you can collect from me when you can.

Coaching Staff Update

• Coach Hanna and her family relocated up to New Jersey in the storm’s aftermath to allow their kids to be in school. Hanna let me know she’s taken a new job here in Asheville as well. Hanna said the new work schedule, along with being currently displaced, has led her to need to step away from coaching duties at Pisgah. We’re so grateful to Hanna’s many coaching and community-building gifts! I’m assuming she’ll remain available for physical therapy and private coaching and we hope to see her back at Pisgah once their family comes back to the mountains. Thanks for all the awesomeness, Hanna!

• Coach Jason Bowe has been helping with our Tuesday 5:30pm for awhile and subs in with other classes as well. I’ve added Jason’s bio below so you can get to know him a bit better if you haven’t already. We’re thrilled to have Jason with us!

  • Jason is a CrossFit Level 1 trainer, and also has completed his USAW Level 1, CrossFit Anatomy, and CrossFit “Spot the Flaw” courses. With 7 years of experience, he’s passionate about helping others reach their fitness goals. Outside of the gym, Jason works as a realtor. His hobbies include golfing, hiking, mountain biking, and looking for new adventures in the outdoors. He shares his life with his amazing girlfriend Sara and their two dogs, Jack and Olive.
