Hey Stroller Strong Moms!

February and March have been filled with lots of awesome SSM events and happenings. We have welcomed tons of new SSMs in Columbus and in Savannah! In Columbus, we had an awesome group Valentine's Day Class and a really fun performance of the Harlem Shake thanks to Joe Paull, our SSM videographer/CPG. Savannah had a really fun Valentine themed class and Dr. Suess themed class and playgroup! Speaking of playgroup...playgroups have been going awesome thanks to Carly, our playgroup leader in Columbus, and Kim W, our playgroup leader in Savannah. Please see these ladies if you are interested in hosting a future playgroup!

Columbus SSM Valentine's Day Circuit Class!

SSM Savannah Dr. Seuss theme class and playgroup

SSM Savannah completed at big group 5k last weekend with their GLLAM shirts at the Shamrock Run in downtown Savannah. Tons of PRs happened on Friday night! SSM Columbus gets ready with their GLLAM shirts for a big group showing at the SMA 5K tomorrow morning and the St. Paddy's Day 5k as well. 

We have welcomed new instructors at both SSM Columbus and Savannah! Huge welcome to Brooke Whitis in Columbus! Her bio will be up on the website shortly! She has been an awesome Stroller Strong Moms for some time now and she fell perfectly into the role of being an instructor in the end of February. We also welcome both Kelli Berger and Cassie Cercy to the instructor team in Savannah (both are pictured above as Thing 1 and Thing 2). Kelli and Cassie have been doing an awesome job and they are ready to step right in and keep SSM going strong when Smith baby #3 decides to make an appearance! 

Farewell to Julie...

With the welcoming of new instructors often comes having to say goodbye to someone. Our awesome and loyal SSM Columbus instructor, Julie, will be PCSing to Colorado at the end of March. It is with great sadness that we say goodbye to Julie and family and we wish them the best of luck on their next adventure in Colorado. Please join us in celebrating Julie on Saturday, March 23rd at 5pm at the Clubhouse at Greystone at Columbus Parks Apartments with Potluck food and fun. We will also have a fun tribute class to Julie on Friday, March 22nd at Britt David Park. There will only be one class that day, so please head over to Britt David to honor Julie and all the time, commitment, fun, motivation and friendship she has given to each and every Stroller Strong Mom!!!

You have achieved so much through  pushing yourself in and out of class, day in and day out to become a faster runner, a more fit mom who is able to take on daily tasks with ease, a stronger mom, a better you! Have confidence in that and believe in yourself because you are awesome!
