Advice you’d give to someone considering CrossFit:

Buy some Tiger Balm and a roller!

Favorite (not a fitness activity) thing to do when not CrossFitting:

Hanging out with anyone who’s cool

Visit Spain and watch the running of the bulls!

Guilty Pleasure:

Many…however, drinking wine would be at the top of the list…oh, and spending wwwaaayyy too much on Lululemon!

Best advice you’ve ever been given:

Trust that wherever you are in your life situation, you’re supposed to be there…accept it and learn from it!

When you are famous and they make a movie about your life, who do you hope plays you?
