All Out for breast cancer awareness. 💕🧡
​
Four years ago, Heather R. walked into OTF for the first time, and what started as a workout quickly became something more — a second family, a support system, and a source of strength.
​
At only 38 years old, Heather received a breast cancer diagnosis and underwent a double mastectomy. Because she chose surgery, she was able to bypass chemo and radiation — but her journey was far from easy.
​
"I will say that one of the first things that crossed my mind was how long I would have to take off from OTF. When I got back, I was super nervous and had no idea what I could and couldn't do. The coaches were amazing and gave me alternatives. I shed a lot of tears those first several classes after realizing my body was different now. The coaches were very attentive and encouraging when I was feeling defeated." But she found her strength again.
​
Heather also leaves us with an important reminder: “If you’ve been putting off your mammogram, consider this your sign. Make the appointment. Do your self-exams. Take care of you.” 💗
​
This Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we honor Heather — and everyone fighting, surviving, and thriving. Heather, we’re so grateful for your courage, your voice, and your presence in our OTF family. 🧡

Day 5 of Hell Week: Chains of the Coven. 🧙‍♀️ From the very first second, the witches had us bound. ⛓️ The Spell of Restriction held us tight — inclines stealing our speed, bands clipping our range, rows stalling us like a red light. But every break in the chains was a reminder: Freedom never felt so good.

Tick… tock… the Spell of the Clock was cast. ⏳ Day 4 of Hell Week: Omen of the Hourglass became a race against the witches’ cruelest weapon — the clock itself. Time is ruthless under their spell. 🪄

10/26/2025

Day 3 of Hell Week is a cruel balancing act. Stability shattered. Spells cast. Balance bewitched. 🧙‍♀️ The witches have brewed instability — surges, wobbles, and no safe footing in sight. 🔮

Gravity never plays fair, especially when witches are in charge. 🪄Day 2 of Hell Week and the Spell of Gravity has us in its grip — inclines that won’t quit, weights that feel possessed, and no way out but through. 🖤

we don’t skip celebrations around here 🧡

The witches didn’t waste any time — Day 1 of Hell Week and Havoc’s Hex was unleashed. 🪄 The chaos swirled, the order shattered, and the Spell of Chaos tried to take us down. But you? Unstoppable. 🧡 Drop a 🕸️ if you made it out alive.

Stronger than cancer. Stronger every day. 💕
​
In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we’re celebrating Jean from OTF Altamonte Springs — a fighter, a survivor, and a true inspiration to our OTF family.
​
At 48, Jean was diagnosed with invasive breast cancer and underwent a mastectomy, chemo, and radiation. Determined not to let cancer define her, she refused to become a victim. Years later, she discovered Orangetheory and hasn’t looked back.
​
Now at 67, Jean works out 5-6 days a week, takes on every benchmark and challenge she can, and has crushed incredible milestones — from completing her first DriTri Sprint to winning her studio’s Transformation Challenge to finishing the Ultra 31.1 Marathon with 47.89 miles. ​

"I’m not a victim to cancer — Orangetheory Fitness is my therapy every day." 🧡 Jean, your story reminds us of the power of resilience, community, and showing up for yourself — at any age, in any season of life.

To every Shawnee member - thank you. This studio has been special because of you.
While we’re saying goodbye to these four walls, we’re not saying goodbye to the progress, determination or memories made!
Your membership will transfer to Lenexa on Sept 20, and many familiar faces will be there to welcome you. This isn’t the end - it’s just a new beginning.
