Athlete of the Week

Posted on July 12, 2009 by Jason

"Is it possible to already be addicted?"  Once we heard these words from Sarah Johnson we knew it was already too late…yes, you are officially a CrossFitter.  In just a few short weeks Sarah has blossomed from a skinny girl into a strong CrossFitter.  Usually with her father Arnold by her side Sarah has been setting PRs left and right, as well as banging out some of our standards for the first time.

Sarah has already showed the dedication and determination it takes to be a true CrossFitter.  Showing up consistently 5 times a week and putting out her very best every time.  Sarah is always all smiles, super friendly, and a big part of why our community is so amazing.  Already she has become friends with so many of our other athletes and has been spotted cheering, hanging out, and being a complete social butterfly.

A Paleo Success Story from Jackie:

Just wanted to tell you that I feel like I'm "turning a corner" with my workouts.  It's got to be the Paleo.  Plus, when I watched that CrossFit movie, one guy said you have to go no place you've been before when it comes to the workouts…so I'm trying to do that.   I almost feel sick when I'm done, but I notice my form it totally improving.   I have cheated just a few times on Paleo, but am sticking to it as best I can…chicken for breakfast, etc., etc.  I'm excited!!!  Thank you!!!!
