#FITGIRLCODE WISHES YOU A HAPPY NEW YEAR
It has been such an amazing year for #FITGIRLCODE! We saw the community grow and all your love, feedback and tips were so awesome. We loved hearing from you, each and every single time. You inspired us to keep evolving to be even better at what we were doing.
And we did! Creating and launching Jogha with a team of like-minded women, all experts in their own line of field was freaking amazing. We all worked our butts off to create something that would fulfill your needs when it comes to sports clothing. And so Jogha was born. Seeing all women, in all shapes and forms of all nationalities all over the world feeling badass in their Jogha outfit is the ultimate satisfaction. So seeing this was definitely one of our favorite moments of 2014!
We believe it's all about treasuring the amazing (and also tough) moments you go through to grow as a person. That's why we asked the entire crew to share their most favorite moment of 2014 with you. So we sat together and here are everyone's moments...

My favorite moment of 2014 was when my roommate brought me to train with her field hockey team. I didn’t play in a team with a good level since high school, so it was nice to get back to what was once my passion. Also, that week my mother that lives in another country was in town. Both super excited we went to the training and having my mother there looking at me play made me the happiest person. It brought me back in time when I was 15 and my mom would come see me every single game because she just loved going and wouldn’t miss a single one. That was by far the nicest moment I had this year!

My favourite moment of 2014 was that I ran 7,5 kilometres in the Ladies Run. It was in the beginning of 2014 that I decided that I should do some sports. Usually, I'm not really the type of girl that loves to work out, but I'd convinced myself that this was the year I should do someting. I heard that some girls made use of the programme "Running with Evy." So that's when I started running. She gradually helped me to achieve my first 5 K and it felt really good! I actually enjoyed running and never thought it was possible for me to run that far without stopping or feeling terrible. It felt like a huge accomplishment!

My favorite moment of this year is happening right now. I am looking back on a year full of changes in every positive way and realize that I am feeling like I’m the happiest girl in the whole wide world. This year I found the love of my life, I became healthier and fitter then ever, I celebrated Christmas with the people I love and I also became a crew member of #FITGIRLCODE, that’s pretty awesome right? A new year is on its way and the possibilities are endless.

2014 has been a great year for me: I moved into my own place, graduated from my Bachelor's and started my amazing job at #FITGIRLCODE. So it's really hard to choose 1 favourite moment! But if I had to choose... It would be the moment I received my Bachelor's diploma. It was a very traditional ceremony in which we were wearing those robes and I walked up the stage to the professor and heard my family 'woohoo'-ing in the crowd while there was a round of applause. And in that moment, I felt truly and deeply happy.

This year, my dream to create my own brand came true. My all-time favorite moment this year has to be launching luxury sportswear line Jogha with an amazing team of Fit Girl bosses. For months we have been working on Jogha whilst creating #FITGIRLCODE into the biggest health community for women in Europe. Personally it was one of the hardest things I ever had to do. Literally blood sweat and tears were needed to make my dream come true, and it was worth it!

2014 was a very eventful year for me. I bought my first home; an amazing industrial loft appartment. I started working at #FITGIRLCODE HQ where I learned so incredibly much in a short time period and finally found my superpower. I got the cutest dog in the world, Pien. Not to prepere myself for babies (yeah that’s the first thing everyone says), but just because dogs are way cooler than babies :) Anyway this article is about my most precious moment in 2014 and that was when I asked my boyfriend to marry me! I suddenly realized that I didn’t have to wait for him to ask me. We live in a modern society right? Anyway…. He said yes! Isn’t awesome that I’m gonna grow old and saggy with the love of my life?

2014 has been a year full of changes for me. Good ones! No, GREAT ones! I decided to become a fitnesstrainer and make that sh*t happen in less than three months. I made up my mind halfway this year and it was a great decision. Also I became part of #FITGIRLCODE, which is a real blessing. I have met lots of lovely and inspiring girls and I love to share my experiences and knowledge with all Fit Girls on our Blog. I had my first FitnessSurfing Experience with some of the #FITGIRLCODE girls which was awesome. It will definitely not be the last time I'm hopping on that fitnessboard. It was a year of learning, full of love and with lots of fun. I would love to do it over again anytime.

In 2014 I made a life changing decision. On the 8th of March, I decided to really cut the crap this time and have a career switch from being a mermaid couch potato into a wanna be strong and healthy Fit Girl. On that day I had my first-almost-died-but-keep-going-strong-with-a-smile-and-fininsh-my-trail-crossfitt-HIIT-lesson at Sixforty- dare to challenge. Dragging myself to the gym that Saturday morning was one of the best decisions in my life!!! :) I needed to recover from this decision for tw
o weeks but after that I was unstoppable ;) Since than I transformed into this “I-have-too-much-energy-and-can’t-stop-working-out-catching-unicorns-and-like-to-run-around-in-my-badass-work-out-gear-all-the-time-girl! Whahaha ;) And with cherries on top of that, I became part of the #FITGIRLCODE crew with all these amazing and inspiring Fit Girls and Girl Bosses. YEAH! =)

2014 had lots of great little moments. From sunny holidays and getting to know #FITGIRLCODE, to starting a second bachelor's. If I really have to choose one moment, I would go for celebrating Kingsday with one of my best friends, Carmen. We went to a festival in Amsterdam, great music, good atmosphere. It was amazing. The fact that we were very hungover from the night before and were not able to consume any alcohol didn't even matter. Best day!
Lisa
It was a crazy year for me, however with a lot of awesomeness. I discovered #FITGIRLCODE, became a BodyCombat instructor, graduated from my bachelor's, got an internship at the greatest company in the world.. 2014 also had some rough patches, but I feel strong and I'm doing all the things I love right now. I'm very excited about 2015, there are so many opportunities and I can't wait to start!
Roos
This year was simply fantastic! I joined the #FITGIRLCODE crew, I traveled a lot (Spain, Japan, Cuba, USA, Bahama's, Austria...),I moved in with my boyfriend, I visited a couple of AMAZING parties, and I worked my ass of being a medical doctor. But most of all: I made more choices that were best for ME. I learned to trust my instincts and follow my heart. I learned how to say "no" (so difficult!). I spent more time with the people I love (you know who you are!). This made 2014 simply unforgettable! Happy New Year!
Kim
My most memorable moment of 2014 was the moment I decided to be my own boss. I've had some awesome assignments and really got the chance to show my creativity being the visual designer of #FITGIRLCODE and Jogha. It has been a hectic year full of new opportunities, but also one with tough decisions. 2015 is all about balancing my life as a freelancer and living a healthy life!
Christel
It is impossible to write about the best things of 2014, because there are too many great things that happened! The beginning of 2014: the start-up of #FITGIRLCODE, that brought so many new and exiting things like the trip for Nike to NYC, all the Fit Girls I met online, shoots for several magazines, runs and competitions. Pretty awesome. Another favorite things that happened this summer: I am madly, deeply in love. Not only in love with my handsome man, also in love with CrossFit and maybe the best part: I love my life.
Lisanne
My most memorable moment of 2014 was in January, when I finally got my propedeuse. Due to a failure of my school I had to wait a very long time before I got th
e evidence that I successfully completed the first year of my study. I felt very relieved and proud when I finally got the piece of paper!
Kiki
This past year was filled with great moments, I started working out, joined the #FITGIRLCODE crew, made some new friends but the best part is that I got to know myself. I learned that if you want something, you shouldn’t be held back by fear or insecurities! Life is too short! I am sure that 2015 is going to be great and filled with love, happiness and opportunities.
Bella
2014 has brought me many challenges, good times, sorrow, fulfilment, joy and stirred up a wide array of feelings. It has taught me about patience and perseverance but also a great deal on letting go. Summing up the best, most meaningful, moments of this year in a tiny paragraph has proven to be impossible though having an amazing internship at #FITGIRLCODE HQ this fall and buying the plane ticket to New York to finally see my mom after almost 4 years, rank the top spots on my list. 2015 - I'm ready for you!
Tiziana
Gosh... 2014.. Roller coaster year. I moved in with my boyfriend, met the Fit Girls and joined #FITGIRLCODE, graduated with a bachelor's degree, worked on many movie projects, went from 5km to 15km runnings and lived a full month in Paris for work. Many moments of joy, happiness and togetherness. One of the many favorite moments was the Nike Paris 10k Run. Nike invited me to join, because I was in paris. It was the most amazing weekend ever! All the pampering, partying, meetings with inspiring Nike people like Carl Lewis and Ellie Goulding and the run itself where I set a new PB of 45 min
Laura
So much has happened this year, my boyfriend moved in and I made the decision to start working as a freelancer. I love guiding this amazing group of Fit Girls and all the incredible people that work on #FITGIRLCODE and Jogha and having the chance to create my own job is the best. For real! The thing I am most proud of was I decided to quit my previous job to do something that really mattered. I started doing volunteer work and began mentoring a 13 year old boy, he's simply awesome and makes me so proud!
