Favorite WOD: My favorite WOD would be Eva. I <3 Eva. I love to run, and she is my favorite. Especially during those cool mornings.
Least favorite WOD: My least favorite WOD would have to be anything with a rower or burpees. Long legs and short arms just don't cut it for these workouts.
Certifications: ACE (American Council on Exercise), Level 1 CrossFit Certified, Kids CrossFit Certified, CPR/AED Certified
How long have you been CrossFitting: I have been CrossFitting for a year now. I remember when I would come in and be so intimidated by the workouts and now... I can't get enough. After six months, I just had to get certified. I want to be among the best at our box and I strive to perform at my best everyday. Everything about what crossfit represents is what I want in my life. It isn't just the workouts, the nutrition, the coaches that keep me coming back for more, it's the family atmosphere. Knowing that I can count on every single person at the box to push me to my limit, and then push me beyond that. To pick me up when I am down (literally).
