October Challenge!

Athlete of the Week: Jen H.

Jen Hardi, quite simply, is a fireball (in a good way). If you have ever had the pleasure of meeting or WODing with her, you can’t help but feel the positive vibes she gives off. She brings enthusiasm to each and every workout, even when she is coming off of being sick for 3 days straight (like today). Jen has quite the competitive edge and always gives an all-out effort. Given her background in gymnastics and cheerleading, she accelerates at almost all body weight movements and is on her way to completing her first muscle-up! If you ask her, she will say that she hates wall balls with a passion. I guess it was good then that she conveniently missed “Karen” earlier this week. Jen is a great addition to our team and we are glad to have her!

Congrats also goes out to Adam T. for nailing his first muscle-up this week!
