Featured Athlete
All of us who work out here at CBCF train hard. We are all on our own journey in pursuit of a higher level of fitness, health and ultimately, life. It is not an easy journey, but it’s worth it. It requires hard work, sweat, discipline,and perseverance. This journey is filled with challenges, obstacles, and sometimes even setbacks. And although every person’s road is unique, it is not a solo endeavor. We are in the pursuit of fitness together. As a team, we shall work together to pick up a person when they’re down, and, equally as important, when someone succeeds, their accomplishments should be enjoyed and celebrated by the entire community. It is through this mindset that we bring to you our “Featured Athlete” section
