224workouts

Working out for 224 days in support of the dedicated athletes of CanoeKayak Canada

“Who say’s I can’t?”

Tonight, for any of you struggling to get motivated, I want to introduce you to my good friend and inspiration Jothy Rosenberg.

Jothy is an athlete, an entrepreneur, an academic, a teacher, a producer, coach and more. I would call Jothy a survivor but that just doesn’t seem to fit so I chose to call him a thriver. Living through the amputation of one leg and the loss of a lung after a battle with a rare form of cancer, Jothy decided to push on forward using sport as a driver.

And now he is moving on to tell the stories of other people who had every excuse to listen to people who told them “they can’t” but have chosen not to.

Today as a salute to you Jothy, our team at Norex (many of who are also 224challengers) got geared up in “Who says I can’t” gear and got active.

Thank you Jothy.

Please take a minute to watch about some wonderful people who have decided they can.

I will be going to the gym tonight (Goodlife at Penhorn Mall) to get my workout in and tonight in the spirit of believing I can I am going to get onto that wicked hard stair climbing machine and follow it up with chin-ups (well at least one) to cap the day off. If like me, you have left the workout until the end of the day, you can do it…let’s check another one off the countdown! Great work everyone.

    Thanks Julia, these stories really are worth listening to. It reminds me of The Little engine That Could, “I think I can, I think I can,” all the way to the top of the mountain…..” I’ll bet you are too young to know that book!!!!
