July member of the month Jim Farrell joined Pearce only 3 years ago, but has already logged nearly 9,000 miles on the Spinning® bikes upstairs. Think about that. That’s like riding a bike from Chillicothe, across the Atlantic Ocean to Frankfurt, Germany and back!
“The best part of being a Pearce member is the friendly staff and the robust Spinning® classes that typically have very motivated fellow participants and always an inspiring instructor whether it’s Rob, Kelly, Megan, Michelle, or Ron,” says Jim.
He also lifts weights and swims laps at Pearce twice each week.
His passion for cycling includes biking on the Rock Island Trail or the country roads around Princeville almost every day.
In addition to fitness, Jim finds his time spent at Pearce to be a great tension reliever. His advice to other members: “Ask any staff member for assistance and you will be warmly accommodated whether it’s about classes or how to properly use any of the exercise equipment.”
With his very recent retirement from OSF Health Care, Jim enjoys visiting and caring for his 2 grandchildren ages 1 month and 4 months, and is eagerly anticipating the birth of 2 more in the next few months.
