"I am a 41-year-old mother of two. I have always been fairly 'small', never overweight but certainly not fit. I was never an athlete in school and never liked to run at all. A few years ago, I decided I wanted to start working out as an example to my kids and for myself. I began by working out in my garage. I still remember crying in the beginning because I would get so sore and felt like I would never get there ... A friend had told me about CrossFit. I will be honest, I was absolutely intimidated by it ... In my mind you had to be an athlete your whole life to even think about doing CrossFit, And then there was the age factor .. the only people I knew who did it were in their late teens and early twenties. I am in my 40's and did not want to walk in looking like a joke. Finally, I convinced myself to 'just try' it ... I never heard anything negative and was encouraged every day. Here I am, 7 months later feeling the best I have ever felt. I am in the best shape of my life and I want to tell people everyday how great CrossFit is for your mind and body. I especially want to share my story to inspire anyone my age who is intimidated like I was. If I can do it, they can do it. I am continuing to set goals for myself and strive for the next level. My goal is to inspire, not impress ... I also want to show that CrossFit does not make a woman look less feminine or too 'bulky.'" -- Candy Rice |

"When Tim Tredwell approached us to created some sort of fundraiser to support his 3-year-old daughter's costly surgeries and, consequential traveling expenses, I expected to raise perhaps $5,000. I also expected that, for the most part, we would draw athletes from Shoreline CrossFit. Never, in my wildest dreams, did I expect multiple members to donate over one thousand dollars. Never did I imagine donations would come in from all over the WORLD; from Sacramento to Canada, all the way to Australia! And I could not possible envision standing in front of our competitors after the final WOD, with $23,600 raised for this cause!" -- Lauren Plumey, Shoreline CrossFit.

"We had a super-cool event at our box on Saturday with retired Navy SEAL Larry Yacht! He was on SEAL Team 3 and has since started a tactical self-defense program, Sealed Mindset, focusing on real life scenarios and the skills to keep you and your family safe. He is actually Level 1 certified from back in the day when (Coach) Glassman was teaching the L1 certs and is a huge fan of CrossFit still today. On Saturday we brought him in to teach our athletes the basics of how to handle a firearm and incorporated it into a WOD. Most of the people who attended had never touched a gun! We love introducing our athletes to new things, especially skills that get people outside of their comfort zone!" -- Jason Massie, CrossFit Sisu (MN) |
