Looking Back
Like many of you, I take time at the beginning of the new year to plan and set goals for the coming year. As I do that I also reflect on the past, not just the previous 12 months but the many other years that have gone by as well. At my age, you realize 20 years goes by pretty fast.
In this photo, taken in 1993, we’re actually in what I like to call our “first expansion space”. We had grown from 900 sq.ft. to 2000 sq.ft. in 1991. We were located just a few blocks from here on North Meridian Street at that time. Look closely, you’ll see David Davis, who now owns and operates his own Carmel personal training studio on Rangeline Rd. I was holding the camera, Steve Smith was just out of shot, and Lisa was probably cleaning the locker room. Chad Distler was in the midst of his football career at ISU throwing touchdown passes, and would join us after graduation in ‘ 96.
I look at that picture with gratitude and amazement, thankful for the good times and good people who’ve come through our doors. Whether you started at FBD in 1991 or 2009, thank you for coming back again and again. And thanks for the memories.
Regardless of the things that change over the years we remain committed to providing our clients with great service, great energy, and great results. Our passion about helping people reach their fitness goals and change their lives is stronger than ever. I’m looking forward to looking backward this time next year.
(Lisa wanted me to add this photo. No wonder she couldn’t resist.)
Rob Hudson...back in the day.
