one year on my own

It's been a year since I left Camp Gladiator and struck out on my own.

When my husband and I moved to Austin 6 years ago I knew I wanted to start my own fitness brand. I also knew that I needed to figure out what that meant. My first job in Austin was with Camp Gladiator. For 5.5 years, I'd worked to build a successful business with them and had some amazing opportunities along the way.

I learned so much from working with Camp Gladiator about running a business and getting my name out there. I was given the opportunity to be a speaker at their winter and summer conferences numerous times. As you can probably guess, I spoke mostly on running/sprinting philosophies in the bootcamp setting. It was an amazing way to keep me in the running loop while working for a company that really had nothing to do with running. For those who don't know Camp Gladiator is a bootcamp fitness company whose clientele is the average human.
