What brought me into CrossFit was trying to find something to fill the void of not playing softball anymore. I needed something that was slightly competitive and would keep pushing me every single time I came in to workout.

My first impression was that I was a little intimidated but anxious and excited at the same time. I love trying new things and I knew that this was going to be a good fit for me. I don't think my first impression has changed at all except for being intimidated. I find myself looking forward to each workout even if they are movements I'm not entirely good at.

I would say my first achievement was having completed my first workout RX and also competing in my first competition. It took me some time to get acclimated but I was finally able to do it!

I am working on making each workout more intense for myself. To keep pushing whether it's choosing a higher weight or increasing my speed throughout the workout. I love to see changes within my body and myself so when I see results it makes me feel accomplished.

My favorite Jaguar memory would have to be when we were doing the last Open workout I believe and I had to complete the workout on my own. Everyone stayed to watch and cheer me on. It made me feel supported and pushed me harder!
