Amy,I wanted to take a minute to write you and let you know how much I have enjoyed becoming a part of the R.A.W. community. In the past I was never one to enjoy working out and I shied away from gyms/classes because I just never felt comfortable being there. At the time my idea of a workout was walking around the neighborhood with my kids.Then in February of 2015 my whole life changed when I was diagnosed with a brain tumor. After surgery to remove the tumor I made the decision to fight this disease with everything in my power. My outlook on fitness and staying healthy quickly became very different. In addition to typical medical treatment I took it upon myself to overhaul my diet and make fitness a priority in my life. Unfortunately, due to the surgery I was told that I could no longer drive so I didn’t even consider joining a gym. I started running for the first time and working out at home. After about a year I realized that I just wasn’t pushing myself enough to get where I wanted to be and I was getting bored working out at home! A friend convinced me to try a class at R.A.W. Both her and my husband said that if I enjoyed the classes they would make sure I was able to get there. Well one class was all it took…!I couldn’t believe how supportive and motivating all of the coaches and other class members were. Coach Lori and Coach Kate listened to my goals on the first day and they continue to help me achieve and surpass them. Thanks to them I am in better shape and stronger now than I have ever been. I actually find myself getting upset when I cannot attend a class!Amy, I cannot thank you and all of the coaches/staff enough for making R.A.W. such a great place to come to every day. R.A.W. is so much more than just a gym. It has truly changed my life and I can’t say enough good things about the entire R.A.W. community and how welcomed and supported you have all made me feel.~ Meghan Fossaceca
To become the greatest wrestler in Greece, to win six Olympic laurels, Milo had to train like the rest of us. His method? Borrow a new born calf and carry it around Croton day after day, week after week, and month after month. As the calf grew, so did Milo’s strength, until he was the strongest wrestler in Greece and could carry the now full grown bull upon his back.
What did he do once the bull was grown? He ate it.
That’s what we’re about here, carrying the weight, getting in the miles, doing the work, day in and day out, making small gains, occasionally dropping the calf, but always picking it back up. It’s a simple enterprise – do the work, get better. At sport, at life, at everything.

Memorial Day
“Murph”
For time:
1 mile Run
100 Pull-ups
200 Push-ups
300 Squats
1 mile RunIn memory of Navy Lieutenant Michael Murphy, 29, of Patchogue, N.Y., who was killed in Afghanistan June 28th, 2005.
This workout was one of Mike’s favorites and he’d named it “Body Armor”. From here on it will be referred to as “Murph” in honor of the focused warrior and great American who wanted nothing more in life than to serve this great country and the beautiful people who make it what it is.
Partition the pull-ups, push-ups, and squats as needed. Start and finish with a mile run. If you’ve got a twenty pound vest or body armor, wear it.
