Kettering Fitness Spotlight: Meet Randy Eldred!

Posted on November 8, 2024


For the past two years, Randy has made the Kettering Recreation Complex his home base for adventure prep! As an avid hiker who’s conquered nearly 900 miles of the Smoky Mountains, Randy uses our facilities to stay trail-ready for his challenging expeditions.

~ “Regular exercise at KRC not only improves my physical fitness but boosts my emotional well-being too,” Randy shares. “The supportive environment and friendly community here keep me motivated to stick to my fitness goals.”
~ When he’s not crushing his workouts three days a week at KRC, you might spot Randy hitting the trails at John Bryan State Park or Glen Helen Reserve. His dedication to fitness helps him tackle those impressive Smoky Mountain hikes, where he carries a 60-pound pack up elevations reaching 6,640 feet!
~ Randy’s next goals? Continue building strength and improving his fitness to support his hiking adventures. With 24 years of Smoky Mountain experience under his belt, he’s showing no signs of slowing down!
