Bye Bye Sydney
Chris Sinagoga | Thursday, July 28, 2022 at 7:03PM What was, just a few months ago, looking like a permanent residence here in Michigan has turned to the opposite for Sydney Larson; she's on her way to Ohio and today was her last workout with us for the time being. The workout today was supposed to be an acronym of her name:
S = shuttle run
Y = toes to bar (we kinda hang in the shape of a "Y")
D = dumbbell deadlifts
Her first day was 8/10/2020, so that's where the reps and time came from.
I've said it before how difficult it usually is for randomites to make it work in here, and I still stand by that. It's like being a new kid in a very weird, very sweaty or cold classroom that can sometimes smell like farm animals. Sydney's first couple weeks made it clear that she'd fit the culture here, but after that it was about whether or not she'd be able to commit to pushing her standards up and up. Within the last few months, especially, I've seen her gradually work out of her comfort zone in the heavy-breathing workouts like Helen and I'm really proud of her for that.
But even more, her presence in the gym is something that will be missed, as she can blend in equally with the college athletes, Monkey Exhibit, and the parents. Selfishly I hope we'll have her back in the gym as a regular one day, but I know she'll make it work wherever she ends up.
Thank you for being open to our family the past two years Sydney! Once in the Champions Club, always in the Champions Club.
