Client spotlight... Kathy's Story

Approx Dec 27th 2021, around midnight I came across a post from a fitness group which caught my eye. I had seen a few posts before, never really paid too much attention, but always remembered the smiling faces on the posts. I decide to join the beginners running group to start in Jan 2022 and signed up that night. 
​

the first session.

The first session arrived and I was nervous, anxious, no confidence, feeling totally overwhelmed and out of my comfort zone. I was warmly welcomed by Katy Lead Coach and introduced to the rest of the group. Everyone was at ease straight away, no pressure or expectations whatsoever, we were all in it together... I finished the first session having actually enjoyed it, feeling happy and looking forward to the next session. 

Each week the sessions were fun, different, everyone had varying abilities, strengths and weaknesses, but it didn't matter because the coaches organised the sessions in such a way that you never felt that you were too slow or not strong enough.

Everyone in the group would chat with each other on the runs and slowly we were all getting to know each other and exchanging stories, having a lot of laughs - the sessions would whizz by.

stronger together.

I would go home, reflect on the session and some of the others who actually inspired me so much because of their determination, I knew I had to keep going and if they could do it, so could I. We gave each other that belief.

a little set back.

Meanwhile Coach Katy, still battling to shimmy the builders along with the new studio and keeping us updated with timelines, asked for our opinions on what we would like to see or do with the studio.

​More weeks passed and I encountered problems with attending due to personal reasons, but the group always kept in touch and encouraged me to come back soon and they would help me get back to it... when I did. Despite my increasing lack of confidence in my ability it was the best feeling, back having banter with them that in April I daftly agreed to do a 10k in May with them!


​Market Drayton 10k.

The 10k came and Team Nexus ran the race - what a fabulous day we had. Coaches Katy, Sarah and other amazing members of the team were Stronger Together and completed it. We celebrated together afterwards with Team Nexus and our families, it was lovely. When I started I never thought I would have run the 10k the way I did... I had the team to thank for that.

away days.

An away day walking a few weeks later was hilarious, all together having fun, getting active - this is exactly what the Nexus family is all about. 

A thank you from me to the coaches and my running team for getting me this far.

​I've made some great friends.

the new studio
.

We're now in July and the studio is in full flow, it's all hands on deck, getting ready to open. I put my hand up to help out and rocked up to the studio at 10am on a sunny Saturday with my 10 year old daughter to help with whatever. My daughter was welcomed with open arms, this potentially being part of the foundations for her future fitness path. The energy, sprit and togetherness of everyone there working hard, including Katy's friends and family, I was totally humbled by which confirmed very quickly why joining this group in December 2021 was one of the best decisions I ever made.

I feel honoured and privileged to be a member of this group and joining Katy (Nexus), plus all the amazing members (friends) on the incredible journey ahead.
