Happy Anniversary from Jacky C

Some of us know her as "5402," but we'll call her Jacky C here. She offered up a motivating personal fitness testimony a ways back. You can read it here. For a little summary: she's in her upper 40's, works full time, a devout Believer, and is down 60 pounds (yes, SIXTY) for the past few years.

Jacky C answered the call for more contributors to this blog:

Today is Trinity Training’s Third Anniversary! I revisited the inaugural post today; may I suggest you re-visit it too? Click to read Renaissance Men (and Women) here.

• “But even physical strength and stamina cannot reach full potential without proper effort spent in spiritual and mental exercises” - Lou Hayes

My personal testimony is based on this truth. It took spiritual and mental exercises to create a foundational base to build my physical strength and stamina upon which I stand today. Without that solid spiritual and mental base, my physical strength and stamina would have collapsed by now…. No doubt!

In my personal testimony I shared with you a personal bible verse which I attribute my new state of well-being:

• “Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind…” - Romans 12:2

I renew my mind daily … through reading of scripture, books, this website, the CrossFit Faith website, and by experiencing life daily.

My October 2009 testimony didn’t stop at a 60 pound weight-loss. The “loss” created room for “gain” … I have gained so much wisdom and understanding since that time, and I hope to have an opportunity share with you in the future.

Thanks, Jacky C. She's offered to continue her posts here on the Trinity Training Group blog.
