THIS IS AN UPDATE on another action we are taking as a precautionary.
First of all to YOU, our membership, let me say on behalf of myself and the Taranis Coaching Team, THANK YOU! Thank you for the support and the positive attitudes! Everyone is doing their part around the gym and we appreciate it!
EXERCISING AN ABUNDANCE OF CAUTION:
As many of you know Coach Steve was recently in Brazil for the Games qualifying Sanctional competition and he returned to Victoria on Wednesday March 11. Canadian health authorities have suggested that anyone returning from international travel after March 11 go into self quarantine for 10-14 days. Steve brought this to my attention this morning and after much discussion with each other and based on the advice of some very smart people working on the COVID-19 pandemic, Steve has elected to self quarantine until later next week. He was in a country with a smaller number of cases and he flew directly back into Canada. He was diligent about taking several precautions while travelling as well. I honestly believe his chances of picking up COVID-19 were minimal. However, in the interest of exercising an abundance of caution and setting a strong example, we feel it’s best for Stevie to stay home.
In the same line of thinking, we are asking anyone who has recently returned from international travel March 11 or later, to please stay away from the gym for the 10-14 day period. If you happen to fall into this category, please call me personally to discuss and game plan your fitness during your “staycation”. 250-882-0225. We will provide you with some fantastic at home programming and support.
PLEASE REVIEW THIS POST for all of our updated Communicable Illness Policy and Standards (emailed Thursday March 12 at 9am)
Check the blog daily for updates! I’ll do my best to keep you all informed with anything I think is relevant to our community.

With the growing concern and the global spread of COVID-19, I feel it’s prudent of me to address the actions we are taking in the gym to keep our space as clean and sanitized as possible.
On Monday I started by reviewing our current Communicable Illness Policy and Standards. I went to my janitorial supply store and spoke with my favourite sales rep and came away with a few additions to our current system. Please have a good read of the following items. We all have a role to play in keeping our space and community healthy.
General Healthy Habits for your immune system:
Eat healthy foods and drink lots of water
Wash your hands frequently
Exercise frequently – Rest appropriately
Get outside for fresh air and daylight
Sleep Deep
Taranis Communicable Illness Policy and Standards
Stay Home Request – Now and always during cold and flu season:
If you and/or anyone in your household is sick or “fighting something”, we are asking you to stay home and get better. Rest, hydrate, eat well and sleep. This is the number one preventative measure.
We are continuing with:
Encouraging hand washing post workout. All of our bathrooms are equipped with soap and paper towels. 20 seconds of soap massaged into wet hands (palms, backs and between fingers) and then rinsed well does the trick. Sing a song, repeat your favourite mantra or stare in the mirror and admire your muscles. Any of those things will serve as a good distraction and the time will fly by!
Providing hospital grade disinfectant spray and sanitized rags for spraying and wiping down equipment contact points and gym floors (if you have left some sweat behind) after wod’s or training – we will now be enforcing this practice.
SPRAY CONTACT POINTS OR FLOOR
LET SIT FOR 30 seconds
WIPE DRY with a clean rag
TOSS RAG in the laundry bins provided
Regularly cleaning the gym floors and additional surfaces with hospital grade disinfectant.
NEW Additions or Practices:
Increasing the frequency of cleaning in common areas with hospital grade disinfectant products.
Hand Sanitizer dispensers will be mounted in 4 different locations around the gym. They are currently back ordered but will be hung up as soon as I get them.
2 x entrances, 1 x check in desk and 1 x mobility room
Disposable sanitizing wipes dispenser – for pull up bars and rings(wrap the wipe around the bar or ring, no spray needed- wipes go in the landfill bins)
Hand wash station at the kitchen sink – installation happens on Friday
Ideally the kitchen sink is mainly used for filling water bottles, food heating and washing dishes. Hand washing is encouraged in the bathrooms but the kitchen sink is available as well.
As much as possible, we will support athletes using individual equipment and not sharing equipment during partner wods and warm ups. If you have any concerns please speak to the coach, we will find a solution.
NO SHAME POLICY
We will all have different reactions and feelings about the COVID-19 situation. Some people are not concerned at all and others are feeling anxiety and even panic. Let’s be respectful across the board and remember that we all have different situations to consider. We have a tight knit community where hugs, high-5s, handshakes and fist bumps are frequent. We are suggest putting this physical connectivity on hold right now for everyone’s consideration. I’m a hugger BUT right now, as an asthmatic, I am feeling some weird things about my personal space. If I don’t hug you for the foreseeable future, please know it’s not personal to you, it’s personal to me. I will be testing out the toe-tap thing. You know, the footsie high-5!
If you have any concerns or items to discuss, please don’t hesitate to message me directly at info@taranisathletics.com
Wishing you all health and happiness,
Vanessa aka Sully
