Facing health concerns in his mid-forties, he was motivated for change, and he embraced Spartan racing after a personal trainer's suggestion, reviving his competitive spirit. Two years of rigorous training and a shift in diet and lifestyle habits positioned him on podiums in various races. Despite setbacks during COVID, Jon adapted by shifting his focus to the Tactical Games, a competition originally designed to simulate combat but is much more physically demanding than the Spartan races. Jon's journey is a fantastic example of resilience, the transformative power of embracing new passions, and maintaining an active, adaptive lifestyle.…

However, when she played college recreational co-ed volleyball, she got the opportunity to referee and a new love was born! She liked refereeing so much (and especially the fact that she could get paid doing it), that she began refereeing high school volleyball. Sue went on to referee, keep score, and be a commissioner at all levels, including NCAA, club volleyball, and Senior tournaments. She even was a scorekeeper at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics!
