Thanks to Ron my staff is energized and thinking about how their health impacts all facets of their life. You touched many people with a message that will stay with them for a long time to come. - Steve Wagenheim, President, Granite City Food & Brewery

Through my job at WCCO Television over the past 30-plus years, I've had the chance to be involved with and exposed to some of the most dynamic individuals in sports and other walks of life I would be hard pressed to find someone who's personal message and passion could match that of Ron Henderson. I recently saw first hand the effect Ron's powerful spirit and commitment to personal health and fitness had on a group he spoke to at a gathering at a Minneapolis hotel. I sensed, as a group they were initially reluctant to buy into any message of the value of health and wellness goals over personal financial goals. But within minutes, I could see that skepticism melt away on their faces. Ron Henderson talks from the heart. His speech came from the heart, not from a bunch of well rehearsed notes. He lives what he believes and whether an individual was already in a workout program or hadn't exercised in years, his message was well received at every corner of the room. More than ever, Ron Henderson's words need to be heard. He knows we are a society that has an epidemic of childhood obesity that often leads to adult diseases. Keeping ones vitality, no matter your age, is Ron's crusade.He has personally meant everything to me. I know at age 55, and in a business staying vibrant on television is paramount to connecting to your viewers, Ron Henderson has given me the motivation to stay the course for the rest of my life. - Mark Rosen, Sports Director -WCCO T.V. (CBS)

I can't tell you enough how much you brought to the event on Saturday. It was simply a joy having you there and I have heard over and over again from participants how much they enjoyed having you there. You were definitely a highlight. Your message was awesome as well and fit so well with the event and the overall message the ADA tries to provide for people. I could just go on and on. - Britt N. Guild, Associate Manager, American Diabetes Association, Parkdale Center, St. Louis Park, MN

Recently, I attended a corporate event at a large Minneapolis hotel with Ron Henderson as the keynote speaker. This was a business in which most employees had desk jobs and it was Mr. Henderson's task that day to help the attendees honestly evaluate their personal level of physical fitness and motivate them to make fitness a priority in their lives. Mr. Henderson's approach is to evaluate physical fitness in much the same way most people evaluate their financial fitness. It is an approach all in attendance could easily grasp! Just as most people understand that planning for a secure financial future requires you to save something out of each check, the same holds true of planning for a healthy future. If you are not physically fit, you will not enjoy the benefits of being fiscally fit. Paying yourself first applies in both cases. Mr. Henderson's presentation was a high energy mix of humor, stories from his personal journey to fitness and engaging with people in the audience. It was the kind presentation that kept everyone's attention and even drew in hotel employees and others in the hotel that day. They heard Mr. Henderson's presentation through the auditorium doors and came in and stood in the back of the room. It was a full house of excited and energized people! - Steven Shapiro, Vice-President, French Meadow Bakery & Café, Minneapolis MN
