Sun, Sand and Sweat: Elevate Sundays @ Ola Beach Workouts 1st Anniversary
Celebrating the 1st anniversary of the Elevate Sundays @ Ola series of beach workouts was no small feat, especially given the weather forecast that had been predicted in the week leading up to the event. However, despite the potential for rain and chilly weather, the organizers decided to proceed with the event, and it turned out to be a memorable and exciting day for everyone involved.
Elevate Sundays @ Ola is a monthly beach workout conducted by coaches from Elevate Performance Gym in collaboration with Sunday Shades and Ola Beach Club. For the first anniversary celebration, Sunday Shades was the main sponsor and invited their IG / FB followers to participate in the workout. In addition, partners Sandactiv3 sponsored apparel, Elevate provided free gym vouchers, and Ola provided beer and finger food.
Participants were divided into three teams to complete various challenges, with the winning team walking away with one pair of Sunday Shades per person, Sandactiv3 vouchers, and other goodies. Each participant also received a goodie bag, making it a truly rewarding experience for everyone.
The weather leading up to the event had been wet, cold, and rainy, which led to concerns about whether or not the event would be able to take place. However, 1.5 hours before the event, the ground staffs checked the weather and determined that there would be no rain for a 2-hour window between 8 – 10 am. Based on this forecast, the organizers made the decision to proceed with the event.
Despite the potential for rain and chilly weather, most participants came out to join the workout, with only a small handful unable to make it due to other reasons. As it turned out, the rain stopped, and even the sun came out, making for an enjoyable and intense workout for all involved.
One of the highlights of the event was the opportunity for many participants to try beach workouts for the first time. This experience provided a unique and challenging way to stay fit, and many participants promised to return for future workouts. It was a great way to showcase the benefits of outdoor fitness and how it can be an enjoyable way to stay healthy and active.
The celebration of the 1st anniversary of Elevate Sundays @ Ola was a significant achievement, particularly given the unpredictable weather conditions. The success of the event was due to the dedication and commitment of the organizers, sponsors, and participants who all came together to make it happen. It was a testament to the power of collaboration and how it can lead to positive outcomes and meaningful experiences.
Overall, the event was a resounding success, and it demonstrated the importance of staying active and healthy, even in challenging conditions. The beach workout provided an exciting and unique way to achieve these goals, and it was a fitting way to celebrate the first anniversary of Elevate Sundays @ Ola. With the promise of more events in the future, it is clear that this collaboration will continue to inspire and motivate people to stay fit, healthy, and active for years to come.
