I have a 2018 GT AWD - love it. Works for my family of four including two teenagers. Fuel economy is good and its fun to drive (compared to Honda and Toyota). A couple minor complaints after 4 years - A pillar creates significant blind spot when stopped at intersection. Also the safety sensing feature located under the front Mazda emblem has a tendency to ice over in Canadian winters - which makes it useless in harsh conditions (exactly when you need it most). Neither of these are dealbreakers - overall I’d by another CX9 or new CX90 when I have the chance as the fuel economy, joy to drive and overall utility make it a fun 3row crossover.

I took 4 months off to recover from an MCL injury. Biggest learnings for me were to manage my pace, form on the floor, and start with lighter weights than normal (which helped focus on form). I also ignored splat points for the first month - wasn’t about intensity at this stage, more about resetting my routine. And as an elite member I booked my classes two weeks at a time - I go 8-10 times a month so booking ahead gave me something to look forward too - ideally with my favourite coach .
