We also learned that Anne Mahlum and Brennan McReynolds will be opening SolidCore a specialty fitness studio in November 2013 at 1845 Columbia Road, NW. They are building out the website now but the landing page will be www.solidcore.co. They are already Adams Morgan residents and love the neighborhood. They are thrilled to be building a community in the health and wellness space too.

Anne Mahlum is also the Founder of Back on My Feet, www.backonmyfeet.org. Back on My Feet (BoMF) is a national for-purpose 501(c)3 organization that uses running to help those experiencing homelessness change the way they see themselves so they can make real change in their lives that results in employment and independent living. The organization’s mission is not to create runners within the homeless population, but to use running to create self-sufficiency in the lives of those experiencing homelessness. The program’s success is measured by how many Members achieve independence through employment and housing.
