If there is anything that Ali & Nick can teach those around them, it’s that teamwork is EVERYTHING in a relationship. Their relationship was built on this premise of togetherness and continues to grow in that regard.

When I think of Bridget and Mike, I think of true partners. Two people who support each other constantly, through whatever endeavor they face. It is truly inspiring to see them embrace each other’s daily strengths, sense of humor, and commitment to a healthy, happy lifestyle. They are two of the most welcoming, down-to-earth people […]
