I had been going to a gym and running, but these activities had gotten kind of stale. I didn’t feel very excited to do them and therefore wasn’t going as often as I wanted to. I was looking for something new to get me excited about fitness again.

I was initially drawn to CrossFit since it reminded me of some of the community I had in the military with fitness -pushing each other, the competition, and the camaraderie.
