It's a modern love story that dates all the way back to 2004. Claire and Tom initially met back in high school, when Claire dated one of Tom's good friends. After not speaking for almost 20 years, they reconnected when Claire slid into Tom's DMs on a Friday afternoon, responding to one of his Instagram stories about squats. Classic. DMs that day led to texts later that night, when Tom invited Claire to come down to Lewes the following weekend. Obviously, Claire said yes. After that weekend, Claire returned to Baltimore to a beautiful flower delivery and was toast. A few months later, they made it official. Two fitness entrepreneurs building their dream studio/gym, they dated long distance for almost a year and a half until Claire's studio in Baltimore took a turn, and an incredible opportunity opened up in Lewes. Claire moved to Lewes in the fall of 2024, where they now own and run their own businesses right down the street from each other. It was meant to be! Thank you, universe.
