Tell us a little about yourself and how you got into Crossfit? I’m a fifty year old (ugh) recovering teacher who now practices law and lives on JI with my wife and two kids. I played soccer all my life until my second kid showed up and life got hectic. I decided I needed to try and get fit again while watching my father’s health swiftly decline after years of a sedentary lifestyle. My brother is a personal trainer and CrossFit coach, and he convinced me to give it a try sinc

Tell us a little about yourself and how you got into Crossfit? I’m 38, grew up in Germany, work in tech, love my dogs, ice cream, documentaries and nerd stuff.

Tell us a little about yourself and how you got into CrossFit? I was gettin a little fat. My best friend had started doing it and loved it, sent me his workouts everyday, etc. so I gave it a shot and loved it! What keeps you coming back each day? There’s a unique level of challenge where I don’t feel I’ll ever have mastery of every movement and weight. So, movements and weights that I haven’t mastered keep me coming back. When those movements aren’t present in a workout, it

Tell us a little about yourself and how you got into Crossfit? My name is Lilith, but most people know me as Lillie. I’m a registered nurse and have been for almost four years, currently working in a progressive care unit. I originally came to South Carolina for travel nursing, but I ended up loving it here so much that I decided to stay a little longer. I started CrossFit at the end of 2021 when I was looking for something new to help me stay consistent in the gym. At the t
