People call me V (mainly because it's better than being called Vanessa or Victoria all the time). I am the co-founder of CrossFit Flushing which I opened in 2013 with my husband Rob Walber. I found CrossFit in 2009 and know of no bigger life-altering event than that. I've watched it grow, watched myself change over the years and have created relationships, a business, and a life all because of CrossFit. I participate in the Open because of the tradition. It's like celebrating a holiday with your family. During the Open season, I feel connected to every CrossFitter around the world; my brothers and sisters in sweat and perseverance. It's the highlight of my CrossFit year. The nerves, the grit, the PRs...it's all worth it.
