John's story is one of over 40 stories we are exhibiting at the Y during our 7th Annual Rye Y Story Project.
"Recently, I became involved in teaching adult swimming classes as well as spin classes at the Rye Y. The most satisfying thing for me is seeing people achieve their goals. Some of us were athletes earlier in life, while others were not. We got involved in careers and raising a family and now are all coming back to fitness. We all have goals, whether it is competing in a 5K or 5-mile Rye Derby, training for an ironman or fund raising for a cause. The camaraderie is great. If I can help others reach those goals - that is very rewarding."Read more
