Athlete of the Month: Louie Kirchner
 Athlete: Louie Kirchner Coach: Jen Henry In only a season and a half of being a part of The Sport Factory, Louie is known and admired by all as an athlete as well as an individual. As one of the hardest working athletes out there, he is always able to maintain a balance between family, work, and training. His dedication to the sport and to the training, as well as his drive to always better himself has led him to an amazing season thus far, with his 'A' races still ahead of him! Louie has accomplished 5 top 3 overall placements this season, 3 of those being overall wins! Because of his work schedule, Louie does the majority of his training solo, which as we all know can be challenge in and of itself, but he never fails to get the workout done perfectly as prescribed, pushing himself to new limits each week. Louie, thank you for being such a positive representation of the Sport Factory in so many ways! You are going to ROCK Augusta 70.3!!! |
