Fail forward. It is your opportunity to start again more intelligently.
The most important thing about a goal is having one.
Inch by inch, life's a cinch!
Yard by yard, life is hard!
Sow a thought, & you reap an act.
Sow an act, and you reap a habit.
Sow a habit, and you reap a character.
Sow a character, and you reap a destiny.
~Charles Reader
Only as high as I reach, I can grow.
Only as far as I seek, I can go.
Only as deep as I look can I see.
Only as much as I dream can I be.

New fitness option for faculty and staff, incentive for all pass-holders
From: The Department of Recreational Sports
The Department of Recreational Sports is proud to announce the new War Memorial Hall Group Exercise Fitness Pass. This new one-time pilot program of War Memorial Hall group exercise classes has been created to help fill the void left by the CommonHealth cancellation of the CommonHealth Faculty/Staff Fitness Program.
For the first time ever, Virginia Tech faculty and staff, along with eligible users of War Memorial Hall, can purchase the new Fitness Pass which includes all group exercise classes offered at War Memorial Hall. Two different passes will be offered - a year-long pass for $47 and a semester-long pass for $25.
All War Memorial Hall group exercise classes will be free for patrons to try the first week of academic classes, August 25th through August 31st. Prospective pass holders can try out the group exercise classes before investing in the Fitness Pass. Due to construction on the dance floor in War Memorial Hall, the free week classes will be limited. Starting Monday, September 1st the dance floor will be in full swing and many different types of group exercise classes will be offered in War Memorial Hall such as abs, body sculpting, cardioboxing, Kukuwa's Dance Workout, step, yoga, and zumba to name a few.
Interested Virginia Tech patrons can check out the free week and full semester schedules and/or register for group exercise fitness passes online.
Motivation is one of the keys to success and being active and motivated entails following a healthy lifestyle. To help fitness participants stay motivated, Recreational Sports has again partnered with Carlson Wagonlit Travel to offer another fun incentive contest - the Carlson Wagonlit Travel Fall Fitness Challenge. The challenge is free for any full or War fitness pass holder - student, faculty, and staff - that attends a War Memorial Hall group exercise class. Participants are automatically entered into the drawing by attending any group exercise class and the more classes they attend, the more chances they have of winning the Carlson Wagonlit Travel grand prize. The grand prize travel package includes a $200 Carlson Wagonlit Travel gift card, plus a $100 Exxon gas card, and a $50 Red Lobster/Olive Garden gift card.
"There is more of a reason to work out when you can get in shape, and at the same time you can be rewarded for your efforts," said Ali Arner, assistant director of Fitness and Assessment. Carlson Wagonlit Travel is a leading travel management company headquartered in Lynchburg, VA and has been in business for 13 years. They can be reached at 1-800-869-6588 or contact Brenda O'Reilly, local travel agent and Images By B owner at 540-998-1303.

Personal Trainer
Hello!
I hope you enjoy photos of my final day in Ventura. I had a chance to take a hike on Santa Cruz Island (Channel Islands National Park). Enjoy-
Below is a Message from our fellow member Shari about the ability for staff to take advantage of a personal trainer on campus at a low cost. Thanks Shari for sharing.
“You can get a grad student personal trainer and pay only $15 an hour! Using the gym is free!
The url is: http://www.recsports.vt.edu/fitness/training/ On the left side are links for prices, bios of the students, etc.
And there are fitness classes at War Memorial gym and pool, some are free, some aren't. But there is a free trial week coming up end of August.
