GenPride

#GenPride was generously appointed one of the beneficiaries for Pride Deadlift Party hosted by @RainCityFit this past Saturday! Thank you so much for centering LGBTQ seniors. I (Jaime Husmillo) had the pleasure of meeting this vibrant soul, Kate, who is a 74 year old participant in the deadlift event. This is a perfect example that anyone can do anything they want when they have a positive attitude, and they have support and community surrounding them ❤️
