Choose Happiness

SEPTEMBER 10, 2020  BY TEXAS HEALTH & RACQUET CLUB

Dear THRC Family,

As COVID-19 has hit our community, we have seen our people come together for the greater good. People are consciously making choices based upon their own health and the health of the community. And for that, I am grateful.

Through these challenging times, please remember the importance of maintaining your own good health. Healthy bodies and healthy minds start with physical fitness.  Movement is often the best medicine for both physical and mental ailments.

According to the CDC, one person dies every 37 seconds from heart disease and it remains the leading cause of death in the United States.  As well, over 10% of the population suffers from diabetes. Both of these illnesses are more easily managed or prevented with regular physical fitness.

Many of us have become more reclusive and reluctant to prioritize our fitness. Even in a pandemic, obesity, heart disease and diabetes are still ruthlessly killing people in our community. We specialize in changing people’s lives through health and wellness at THRC.

Our community should be reassured that our home, THRC, is a safe place. We have not loosened our cleaning or screening procedures and continue to put our community’s health as our top priority. Please make sure you are prioritizing your fitness and your health.

We, Texas Health & Racquet Club, actively choose health and happiness. Even in these uncertain times, we can still control our attitude and our own actions that contribute to our happiness and that of our community. My friends and family choose happiness.

Yours in health,

Randall Lavender
