I had the opportunity to meet with Chante Wouden from TooeleTV.com last week. It was so much fun to tell her all about the amazing opportunities I had this year to teach, learn, and encourage FANtastic fitness and nutrition to the community. And also for her to witness the Hustle for Hunger 5K that turned out to be an amazing experience and great success (thanks to everyone in the community who came and supported the event!!!) Check out TooeleTV.com and see what's up in our community! :)
