2021 December Spotlight Athlete- Tim Williams

This month we want to celebrate one of our early risers! Tim is a faithful member of the 5:30am crew and he’s our spotlight athlete for the month of December. He’s been a consistent hard worker who comes in and quietly gets the job done. One of the cool moments our coaches gets to witness before class begins is his morning call to his daughter who’s studying at Howard University. When she’s home she comes into the gym as well! It takes a special kind of commitment to workout so early and if you’ve talked to Tim you know his family is a main motivation. It’s really great to see. Read his comments below about his time with us. We hope these athletes we share each month inspire you to come in and get in shape to be as fit as you can be for yourself and the ones you love.
