Meet Cherie!

Can you tell us a bit about yourself?

Hmmmm how much is too much or too little? Lol well, let’s start with my profession,
I am a Mortgage Loan Officer that is typically very black and white. I love helping people with the biggest purchase of their lifetime. It’s not a job, it’s definitely so much more. My dad is a Pastor so that makes me a preacher’s kid and that has always been interesting to say the least. I have an identical twin sister that people can barely stand us together because they say we are mean but really we are just having fun and they don’t get our jokes! lol

How did you get interested in Crossfit?
Some girl named Barbara Lewis…. Ha, ha JK! Me and Barb worked together in Real-estate and she would always post on FB about her work outs and I thought that seems really cool, I wonder if I could do it? When your motivation is down, how do you find the drive to get up and come in? I think about my daughter and the conversation we have before I take her to school. She always ask me how the work out went, who was the coach that day, was it really hard, what did I learn? If I didn’t have these answers for her I would feel like I failed her.

What is your least favorite movement?

The movement we make when we have to do the assault bike lol!! That thing is bananas and to hear some crazy guy in the background saying “you can do anything for ***** seconds/minutes/hours”

What is the next goal you hope to reach with Crossfit Cataclysm?
Chin ups

What would you say to someone that has never tried CrossFit and looking to get started? Any tips or Advice?
If I can do it, you can do it. I am the girl who had never worked out, never had a gym membership and started with Crossfit. Just do it!!!
