Husband of woman tragically killed by car turns her gym dream into reality

The husband of a Brisbane woman tragically killed by an out-of-control car has turned his wife's gym dream into a reality.

Yasmin McAllister, 27, was walking to a bus stop at Camp Hill in June when she was hit by the vehicle and killed.

Her husband Aaron, who had been married to the interior designer for less than a year, said the only thing that has kept him going was opening their gym.

"It was the only thing that kept me going," he told 7 News.

Fitazfk has been built in line with Ms McAllister's designs, but a huge portrait of the model has also been included on the rear wall.

"I definitely think we feel her spirit here," Ms McAllister said.

Fitazfk has been open for just one week and already has 250 members.
