I started Crossfit about 7 1/2 years ago. I was looking for a change in my already (what I thought was vigorous) packed workout regime. I was running, doing group classes at a gym and really getting bored.

I fell in love with CF right away!  I loved the diversity of the workouts and I loved how I could push my body to places I never dreamed of. I saw other women doing things that I REALLY wanted to do.   I was hooked and loved the changes that I saw in my body and mind.

My impressions of CF have not changed all that much. What has changed is what I can still do.  I am 47 and realized it was time to start listening to my body more and treat it with a little more care.  I am still very active at CF Jaguar but I have changed my workouts to better suit my needs.

Everything was my first achievement!!! I think when I was able to my pull ups without a band and deadlifting over 200 lbs.

I am currently working on building my strength.  I still believe that I have more in me as far as weight load is concerned. I am using a program called Jacked Street that focuses mostly on strength.  I am a CrossFitter at heart and do occasionally do a WOD as a reminder of how it feels to get my ass kicked and keep up with the 20 somethings!

Every time I am in the box I am creating memories.  I love my training partners and I love the CF community at Jag.  Favorite memories probably include the support and confidence I get from others who are training.  We push each other to new PR's and new techniques.  I am so blessed and proud to be a part of this box. I truly can't imagine my life without these people and CrossFit/Jacked Street.
