Y Story - Peter

Peter - Y Member

"The last six months have been hard, especially physically. A good exercise routine was hard to find because I have an arthritic knee and I was running out of motivation to work at home. It was also easy to eat a lot. The virus made me nervous about coming back and yet I was so glad the Y reopened. It was a little weird at first, but it is obvious the Y has done a great job in preparing to reopen. I felt totally safe and it felt great to workout again. In fact, I'm going almost every day now and I feel completely safe, it is easily the safest place I go. The staff is great and the other patrons are equally committed to safety. I'm so glad the Y reopened."
