My name is Sara and I attend SS at the Hickam
location. My husband is Navy, stationed at Pearl Harbor, and we moved
here August 2010.
I first learned about Stroller Strides
when I searched "strollers for living in Hawaii" and Leeward Oahu
Stroller Strides came up :) So I quickly "liked" the Facebook page and
asked for advice on what stroller to purchase. I was only 3 months
pregnant and trying to do all my baby shopping before leaving the
mainland. Everyone was super nice and all recommended a BOB, of course
:)
I planned on joining SS once we moved here but I was sick the
entire pregnancy and didn't leave the house much....and then after baby
was born at Christmas I was a little bit lazy, a little bit nervous, and
a little bit scared to join - thinking I could never keep up with all
the other moms!
Along the way I met Rachel who constantly encouraged me to join.
Just like her workouts, she was relentless ;) I ran a lot by myself on
the Hickam trail so once the Hickam location opened I knew it was time
to take the plunge!
I am so so grateful for all the instructors and the other mommas
for keeping me upbeat and motivated, and a little bit competitive. You
are a hard working group of moms ladies!! This past Christmas, when
packing for the mainland, I realized that NONE of my jeans fit (except
my maternity jeans, YIKES!) and I convinced myself that my body had
permanently changed and it was time to get used to it! I am very
pleased to say that though they may be a bit tight, I can get them on
and zipped and wear them comfortably! YAY!
Thank you all and keep on smiling :)
