What were your goals when you started CrossFit training?
I was basically fed up with being out of shape.  I’m married and have a fantastic 5 year old daughter.  I had turned 39 years old in 2010 and started asking questions to myself if this is how I wanted to be going into the second part of my life.  Also, I really thought about what kind of role model I was for my daughter.  I really want to be a positive influence  to her in every way possible, and being fit is one of them.  Also, I’m turning 40 in June 2011. This milestone birthday has an effect on everyone, instead of buying a new sports car, I decided it would be a fantastic accomplishment to be able to say on my 40th birthday that I’m in the best shape of my life.
