Erin Burke
Considered myself a "non-athlete" in high school and gained well above the Freshman 15 in college. Not long after college, I joined a local YMCA and did the usual cardio + machines. At age 25, I was diagnosed with a brain tumor on my brainstem & had a 9hr surgery to remove it. During my recovery, I had to re-learn how to walk and maintain my body's ability to balance while standing. A few years after my recovery, I discovered my love of running long distances (surprising, given I was the girl who hated to run the bases at softball practice) and running on rustic, Eastern PA trails. Since then, I have completed multiple 50K races and a 40mi event. At 35, I discovered CrossFit. I love lifting heavy, and my endurance background has been a valuable tool for enduring longer WODs. Now in my 40s, I am in the best shape of my life and I'm the strongest I've ever been. Love participating #intheopen at my gym as Iron Cross Athletics (ICA) is the BEST community!
