Was in a stressful job, where networking and socializing occurred at a pub. For giggles, I did a free blood pressure test with the kids while waiting for my wife, and the results were “GO DIRECTLY TO THE HOSPITAL NOW.” I did see a doctor, who said “I’ve never seen a blood pressure this high - but clearly, this is normal for you. YOU need to take control of your health.” Signed up for CrossFit the following week, and I’ve never looked back. That was back in 2015. I’m old and busted (turning 48 this year) but I hit the box 4 to 5 times a week, and I have my CF-L2. I’m easily fitter now, than I was in my twenties.
