Age: 35
Occupation: Paralegal
CrossFit-ing since: October 2007 when CCF was still on the 1st floor of a law firm. I had just completed my 8th marathon so I felt like I was in the best shape of my life! HA! On my first day at CCF, Paul took me through some of the “beginner” CrossFit movements (pull-ups, squats, push-ups, etc.) and I quickly learned that I was not nearly as fit as I had thought I was.
Something other members wouldn’t know about you: I enjoy hiking in the mountains with my husband and son. I love getting away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, and just enjoying nature.
Biggest accomplishment you think can be attributed to CrossFit: I just got my first dead-hang pull-up the other day!!!
Favorite WOD: Fight Gone Bad
Least favorite WOD: Fran!!! She SCARES me!!!
What do you do outside of CrossFit: I’m a paralegal at Murphy & Grantland, P.A. where I have worked for almost 11 years. When I’m not working, you can usually find me out on the road getting in a long run or doing some cycling. Running is my passion, so I am usually training for a marathon or race of some sort. I took up cycling two years ago and have completed several metric centuries and hope to complete my first century sometime this year.
A quote that inspires you: “Bid me run and I will strive with things impossible.” – William Shakespeare
