The Tipping Point<\/a><\/em>, as it reminds us that each day is sort of like a lottery ticket. We can be one revelation, one inspired idea, or one very small step away from experiencing a seismic shift in our lives. The scribbling of that note, and the clarity which it represented, was surely a tipping point moment for me.<\/p>\nAs our Distance Project community continues to grow, and we prepare to move into a new building in Freeport, I wanted to begin a clearer conversation about what The Distance Project is, where it is going, and what I would view as a successful manifestation of the spirit and vision with which the center was formed.<\/p>\n
Behind every kettlebell swing, deadlift, or box jump is a person working towards personal growth. Increased athletic performance, improved body composition, and a\u00a0higher level of physical preparedness are the inevitable results of building stronger people.<\/em> And that is what we do at The Distance Project.<\/p>\nWe are working to build champions.

Expect to see a lot more posts, articles, and activity on the blog as we\u00a0break in the\u00a0new year together!<\/p>\n
