My goal is to be able to be more comfortable in the gymnastic movements and maybe be able to do a pull up one day!

8. What are some goals you’ve accomplished?

Some CF goals that I have accomplished are I can now do a couple double unders!, I was able to do a toes to bar and I think that in just the short amount of time we have been able to run outside, my running has greatly improved. I was able to back squat 205lbs which was pretty cool too!

9. What’s your favorite CF movement?

I really like rowing and power cleans! I really like the heavy lifting and finding new PRs

My least favorite CF move is snatches, but I think with more practice they will get better!

11. If you could write a WOD, what would it look like?

I really have no idea how to write a WOD because I am still learning everything! But I think it would look something like 5 rounds for time of a 15 cal row and 10 thrusters, as heavy as possible.

12. You started CrossFit at the beginning of the year and have improved leaps and bounds! What do you think attributes to that?

I think that I have been able to improve because I am willing to try new movements and keep a positive attitude that I can do it! Having an athletic background helps too. I played soccer, basketball, and softball in high school.

I LOVE Mexican food so Chipotle, Moes, Viva... its hard to pick just one

Outside of the gym I like to spend time with family and friends and when the weather is nice going for hikes with my two basset hounds Bonnie and Marshall.

Cuddle on the couch with my basset hounds! They are the best cuddlers!!
