New Kid on the Block: Lanni

Our newest addition to the Champions Club will be participating in a part-time role, but is someone I'm still excited to have on nevertheless. Lanni Marchant is Shannon's older sister, an accomplished marathon runner, and fellow Harry Potter fanatic. She's going to be spending more time in the area for the time being, so she'll be mixing in some one-on-one sessions and group ones when the schedules line up.

My biggest fear as a homeowner is one day having to do my own laundry so I'm not exactly sure what a "laundry list" is, but it sounds like a good phrase to describe Lanni's injury past. Name it and she's had it. As a result her range of motion is very limited on squats, deadlifts, and anything involving her arms going over her head. But on the good side, she is proving to be much more coordinated than the stereotypical distance runner. And for someone as accomplished as her to seek out coaching from such an... odd setting really speaks to her level of humility and desire to keep getting better. There won't be a New Graduate post because it's not as formal as regular Fundamentals, but either way I know Lanni will be a great fit to our community. Welcome to the Champions Club kiddo!
