I am married (19 years in June) with two children, 12 and 9. I am a former teacher turned professional truck driver. In June 2018 (Father's Day weekend) and two days before my son's birthday, my heart stopped while running with a group. Through CPR, local emergency response team members, and the people that I ran with that day, I've committed myself to ensuring I have a healthy future for my wife, kids, and my extended family. Crossfit has given me and ensured a pathway to reach those life goals. I've completed an entire year's worth of 10k's, 5k's, and virtual 1/2 marathons. Also, finished 2nd in my age group at a local triathlon. Three years into doing Crossfit, I have competed against myself everyday. Sure I've missed a "few" (only just though) classes, but after 3 years of showing up to class, I was voted as Most Valuable Member at Crossfit Angola. I'm very humbled by all the other members outward pouring of love and appreciation. However, I know I'm not perfect. I've signed up and paid for extra class amenities that I haven't completed or finished. I have more to do this year. I will continue to inspire my wife to keep going to class since she joined in January 2020. She looks amazing, feels better despite her aches and pains. I look forward to spending the rest of my life with her.
