CATHE ROADTRIP 2024 here we come!!!

Our 2021 Glassboro Road Trip has been Cancelled

Hi Halloween Roadtrippers,

I wanted to send you an update on the current state of the Halloween Roadtrip next month. We've been receiving many inquiries regarding plans for the event now that covid numbers are rising and many states are beginning to tighten up restrictions once again. When we initially planned this roadtrip we went into it very hopeful that things would continue to improve with the overall state of the pandemic, but we also had to consider the possibility that we would have to cancel it if things began to take a turn for the worse. Unfortunately, it appears that that is where we are headed. It makes me so sad to have to say that because, like all of you, I was so looking forward to seeing your faces in person and working out together here in my 'home'.

At this point in time the covid variant numbers are starting to climb again in many states and masks and mandates are once again becoming a reality. In southern NJ we are luckily still doing very well overall, but we have to take into account that many of the states that Cathletes would be travelling in from are in a different situation. We don't take these types of cancellations lightly and want you to know that we really struggled with this decision weighing the pros and cons of both options. As much as I want to have an in-person roadtrip, it's more important to me to make sure that everyone stays safe and healthy. I wish that I could say that we could wait and see what happens as the end of October gets closer, but we are very much aware that these events require travel planning for each one of you and we want to respect that you need time to make changes and cancellations. Roadtrips also require planning with caterer, DJ, hotel staff, bus company among others and we also don't want to push them into a last minute cancellation situation.

In the next couple of weeks you will see a full refund for the Roadtrip payment that you have already made and the upcoming second payment will be cancelled. Over the next couple of days you will receive additional information regarding this refund and any additional steps that need to be taken. Each of you will also have to cancel your hotel room separately as the hotel will not automatically cancel any rooms. The Roadtrip itself will be moving into a virtual environment and if any of you are interested in attending virtually new signup announcements and details will be coming soon.

I will continue to keep hope that we can have an in person Roadtrip again soon, and we will try again when it seems like things have made a solid (and hopefully more permanent) turn around! I will miss seeing all of you in person, but I know that Cathletes are a strong, committed group and we will always find ways to stay connected until we can see each other again!

2019 Cathe Daytona Road Trip

DBR Pool

Hotel reservations for the Daytona Beach Resort & Conference Center can be made by calling the resort at 800-654-6216 .starting after you successfully sign up on July 31,2019.You must identify yourself as attendees of the Cathe Road Trip 2019 (code: Cathe Nation 2019)..

If you’re looking to save some money you can share the cost of a room with other Cathletes - just be sure to say you’re sharing a room when you make your reservation. The guest rooms at DBR are about double the size of a typical hotel room and each comes with its own kitchen and small living room. You can even have groceries delivered right to your room. The rooms are amazing and very affordable. And how about that view of the Atlantic Ocean for those of you with an ocean side room?”

A big huge group hug and heartfelt note of thanks goes out to all of our 2018 Glassboro Road Trippers! We’ve done it again friends! We came, we conquered and we walked away with some final selfies, hugs and a few joyful tears. I can’t begin to tell you how much it means to me that you come to spend time with me in my “home” base. To my first
time trippers, I hope you left with some new friends, some great memories, a heart full of happiness and some sore muscles! (Wink!) For some of you, more than a decade of visits have passed and you still arrive with the same energetic hearts as you did on your first trip! You embrace the new people and remind me why this community has lived on for so long!

We kicked off on Friday with an amazing boxing class! Your energy and enthusiasm was UH-MAY-ZING!!! Wow! Talk about bringing your A-game right from the very start!

Friday night we held our Cast Meet and Greet. It was the first time that we met many of you and we loved hearing your stories and seeing some before and after pictures of the ways you’ve changed your bodies and your lives through fitness! You all inspire me with your physical strength, your inner strength and your unwavering determination!

Saturday was a jam-packed day! We started with our group photo and you all remembered your roadtrippin’ glasses!!!  Yay!  It was most definitely a frame worthy moment!  From there we headed to step class! There were quite a few hands that went up when I asked who was new, but I would never have even guessed!!! You all stepped like pros!  We were so totally in sync for all of those triples, mambos and V steps! You made my morning so special!

Saturday’s Q&A went by so quickly! You all had some great questions, many of which I haven’t heard before. I think I even made Chris blush this time around, lol.  It’s exciting to hear your thoughts and ideas. I never know where my next project inspiration will come from so please, keep sharing!

After a short, but well deserved break, we headed right back into the fitness room where DJ Joe Vespe was waiting to rock the house with some jammin’ music for our indoor cycle class! What an awesome sweat fest we had! Sprints, jumps and heavy hill climbs, oh my!  We had so much fun we hardly noticed how hard we we were working!

After Q&A we went to lunch! I know I’ve said it before, but the meals on a roadtrip are so extra special, not because of what we eat (although I heard the brownies were pretty awesome), but because of what we do while we eat.  We mingle, we meet, we laugh, we take pictures. We build relationships!  We are family in fitness and it makes such a special difference in our lives!

After lunch, we took ourselves back into the fitness room to check in with our friends at home for a special roadtrip live session- Upper Body and Core! It was speedy, it was sweaty and it was fabulous!  Did all of you at home see us waving at you?!  Four words that will stick with you after seeing this one “double knot your laces!” Lol….

Saturday night ended with a super charged Groovy 60’s themed Zumba party led by instructors Heather and George! This was an athletic, super charged party! Whoa! What a workout! Your costumes were on point and hilarious! Even Austin Powers and Foxxy stopped in for some dance grooves!

Sunday morning we all joined forces one more time for cardio leg blast! Nothing like sore legs for the ride or flight home to remind you of all you’ve done…Oh Yeah!  We got through it in style and still managed to walk ourselves over to the studio for a goodbye breakfast! The goodbye part never really gets any easier. It’s full of such mixed emotions. We want and need to get back to our homes and families, but we wish that we could take all of our Cathlete friends along with us so that the post road trip blues don’t have to set in.  Even as we have to say goodbye, I will remind you that I love you all and I’ll always “see you next workout!” #bossbuilt #cathe2018

I could say that I can’t believe how fast the weekend went, but they all seem to fly by don’t they?!  Not only did you bring your fiercest Cathlete energy, but you also brought in the sunshine! The forecast was looking like gloom and doom, but we ended up with bright sunny days and beautiful warm nights!

We “kicked off” Friday with a ROCKIN’ kickbox class that literally melted our hearts (helllooooo humidity!) lol…  Way to crush it with those heart pumping drills and combos! We even had time for a few requests. Thanks for those ice breakers Jodi (wink!). Melissa, Jessie, Amanda, Nicole, Lisa and Jenn also joined me on stage for some quick combos. Each and every Cathlete gave their absolute all and I was so happy that the Roadtrip started with such incredible energy!

Friday night, after our ocean view dinner and pictures, we headed back to the fitness room to get ready for a well earned and much needed stretch class. We made every attempt to “show our teeth” with our glow in the dark fangs and although we couldn’t quite get there (darn safety lighting) it certainly was fun with all the cool Halloween sound effects DJ Neal surprised us with and all of our cell phones out charging our fangs! This will most definitely be added to my list of favorite roadtrip memories.  Before heading to back to our rooms for the night, we made our way outside for one last Q & A gathering.

Saturday started bright and early with a group shot on the beach and then quickly shifted gears to a jam packed day with “Fit Tower”  Legs, Mixed Impact HiiT and Metabolic Burn.  Whoa, anyone else’s legs still biting back? Weights, plates, tubes, mats, chairs and pure Cathlete muscle! We snuck in a lot of bonus reps didn’t we?  Five five five five five, four four four four four…(heeee he he he heeee).  Let me also take a moment to give a HUGE shoutout to the guys that signed up for our Daytona Roadtrip. You guys were killin’ it each and every workout!  Fist bumps in the house!!! We were all ravenous and ready to eat after Saturday’s line up!

Speaking of appetites, I truly enjoyed our time out on the pool deck Saturday night eating yummy meals, having great chats, making new friends, taking pictures and dancing the night away.  Clearly Cathletes CAN dance! You all tore it up in style as the tunes blasted and the colorful moon rose out over the ocean!

On Sunday we headed out to the beach for our final walk/run and circle of fun.  We raced against the rising tide as we bounded, lunged and burpeed our hearts out!  That tide got half our circle a little extra salty as we got closer to the end of our workout but we made it right to the end! We finished our trip with a delicious breakfast on the upper pool deck complete with some final hugs, pictures and stories and then we parted ways.  Our hearts were happy, but there may have been a bit of goodbye sadness sneaking in as we walked away.

Thank you so very much to all of you for filling my heart with such energy and joy! I can’t wait to see you all again and until then I’ll  … say it with me… “see you next workout”!

Huge hugs and a heartfelt thank you to all of our 2017 Glassboro RoadTrippers! It’s hard to believe that another RoadTrip has come and gone already! We prep, we pack, we travel and in what feels like the blink of an eye we are headed back home. We carry our memories and our sore muscles and we reflect on a whirlwind of a weekend!

We kicked off on Friday with our very first Fit Tower livestream class! Wow! What a sight to see 106 Fit Towers set up in the aerobics studio! You were all amazing! The movement of all those Fit Tower bars sounded like bells as we pulled, pushed, jumped and pulsed until our legs were on FIYAH!  You worked on those towers like pros even with some tight spaces! Some of you chose to purchase towers to take home with you and I can’t wait to hear how much you’re loving it once you settle back in and use them in your own homes!

Friday night we held our Cast Meet and Greet. Jai, Brenda, Nicole and Julie joined us for pics and hugs. We had mothers come up with their daughters, wives with their husbands, veteran roadtrippers and many newbies! It was wonderful to see so many new faces! There was even a handful of trippers celebrating 10 roadtrips or more! Wow! I can honestly still say that each one is as special to me as the last and I appreciate so many of you that have come back year after year with pure Cathlete energy in your heart!

Saturday was a jam packed day! We started a kickin’ kickbox class! We worked up a great sweat! What a way to start the day!  We even managed to throw in some burpees and air jacks! You’re welcome   Spin was up second and spin we did! “How’s the back row? How’s the middle? How’s the front?” Lol… It was fun to carry down the framed picture of many of your workout rooms from my office! It’s a constant reminder of how connected we are even when we aren’t here together in Glassboro.  Our last workout of the day was Metabolic Bootcamp. For this class we pulled out weights and hit those muscles hard!  There’s always energy for one more rep and we sure proved it, right through to a challenging abs section and one final burn on that sit-up push-up combination! Way to go warriors!

Saturday’s Q&A was GREAT! It was so nice to have such a variety of questions! From food to filming to livestream to reflecting on old memories, the time flew by! It also helped to take our minds off how hungry we were… wink!

Speaking of food, I must say that meals are some of the most important hours on these trips. Not only because we more than earn the need to refuel, but also because this is where we mingle, bond and meet new people! There were so many new faces on this trip and each and every one of you that I spoke to seemed like you were having a fantastic time meeting everyone. That is what the roadtrips really are all about!

Saturday night ended with a super charged super hero themed Zumba party led by instructors Darlene and Debbie! Cycle Sweat cast members Nicole, Lisa and Heather joined to party for pics and dancing too! I loved seeing all of your fun costumes, but we’ve always known that every Cathlete is already a super hero!

Let’s talk about step on Sunday! Oh my, you were all STEPTASTIC! I was a little hesitant on putting in all those spins, but you were ON IT! Now THAT was the way to take on the last class of the roadtrip! You brought such amazing energy! I left the class with such joy in my heart! You told me at the Q&A that you still love step and in this class you more than proved it! After class we headed over to the filming studio one last time for a well-deserved farewell brunch. A few more pics, a few more hugs and even a couple of tears shed as we all had to say goodbye. The goodbyes don’t ever really get easier, do they?  But just remember, as we make our way out of studio and wave goodbye, that I’ll always see you next workout and hopefully I’ll see you again on another roadtrip!

The Road Trip is now sold out, but please sign up for the waiting list by clicking the “Buy Ticket” button above! Historically most people who have signed up for the waiting list do get in. You will not be charged unless you get in and we will contact you first to make sure you still want to come.
