Whether you’re a 6am OG or you’ve only ever known the 5:45am class, you may have been caught participating in a lesser known tradition. What started as unintentional twinsies between Kristene Johnson and Shauna Wilkinson, transformed into the weekly practice known as “Blue Pants Wednesday” - a practice we want to highlight today.

Lastly year our community was devastated with the news of Kristene Johnson’s passing. For those fortunate enough to have known her, she was present at our very first class at StrongFit YXE in September of 2016, and was there on the last day at that location. Kristene was dedicated to her gym routine and attended her last class with us in April of 2022.

This Wednesday February 7th, we will be doing a special memorial workout to honour Kristene, as well as to honour others we have lost in our community (Margaret Hucul and Krista Hamstra just to name a couple) . We hope that this Blue Pants Wednesday WOD will help us remember the wonderful people they all were and to take a moment to appreciate the amazing people all around us.
