Early on March 2nd, four Team SpoFit members represented the Sports & Fitness Center while competing in the Phoenix Half Marathon. Team SpoFit cruised past the finish line after pushing 13.1 miles throughout the Phoenix area. Half Marathon veteran Peter Fischer stated, “Team SpoFit was instrumental in getting me prepared for this Half Marathon. I broke my personal best by more than 4 minutes, and I think I want my next event to be a Triathlon.” Team SpoFit helped Tim Surry knock the Half Marathon off his bucket list. “Doing it with Team SpoFit makes it not just an individual accomplishment, but a team accomplishment as well,” said Surry. The Team had 4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th place finishes in their division.
