Linda Hannigan—marketing managerA Canadian who studied Fashion Arts & Design and Marketing Management, Linda has held management positions in the marketing field in several industries; telecommunications, fashion, public relations, and advertising. She has over 10 years of experience with national promotions, brand development and gatekeeping, brochures and collateral, market research and, cause marketing. Linda is a self-confessed exercise junkie—in a pinch, she even leads Boot Camp. She was a weight trainer before becoming an age-grouper triathlete and supplemented the training with practicing Ashtanga Yoga for 7 years. Now she chases around her three small boys, and tries to fit in sprint triathlons and 5-K and 10-K road races. Elev8 Boot Camp has helped her achieve new personal bests in the recent races she has run. “I am easily bored with my workouts and I always need a challenge. That is where Elev8 has been so good for me—the workouts are never the same,” says Linda. “I also love to see others achieve their goals, so the group classes are really inspiring for me.


Janet Lowen—communications coordinator

Janet Lowen—communications coordinatorJanet is a fitness partaker but not a fitness expert. She is Elev8’s communications coordinator. Janet has 12 years of experience in the technical communications field and does a little bit of everything—writing, editing, and web site maintenance to name a few. Janet got her BA in English Literature from Western Washington University and has worked as a managing editor or senior technical editor for Boeing, Microsoft, and currently, Linda Werner & Associates. She loves how exercise and staying in shape make her feel; although, she’d be the first to admit that working out feels a bit like eating her broccoli—she may not love it but she knows it’s good for her. “What I have come to understand about myself is that I need accountability and camaraderie to motivate me to exercise,” says Janet. “Elev8 gives me both—fun people to work out with and someone who’s going to call me to task if I don’t show up.”
