A big Thank Your to Kim Fiddes and true form personal training center in Sherwood Park.  Kim has worked with our team for the last 3 months in conditioning and preparing for the race.  The studio setup at true form is fantastic and even the kids got involved with our workouts.  There were many Sunday mornings that all of us had a hard time getting out of bed because Kim worked us so hard on Saturday.  Thanks for the pain Kim!
