1. Name Beth O’Dea 2. How long have you been doing CrossFit (and at TBL)? What class(es) do you normally attend? I have been doing crossfit for almost 6 years (wow!) and I have been at TBL for almost 3! I usually come to the 8 or 9 am classes earlier in the week and try to hit up the weekend classes whenever I can, sometimes with Kam in tow! 3. What’s your why? Why did you start? Why do you stay? My why– I’ve always been somewhat athletic and went to the gym. A friend of mine had started crossfit and encouraged me to buy a Groupon to give it a shot! So I did and I never left!! I stay because I love it- it’s that simple! Crossfit has been my “constant” in life- I moved across the state, transferred jobs, got pregnant, had a baby and crossfit...

1. Name Andrew Correia 2. How long have you been doing CrossFit (and at TBL)? What class(es) do you normally attend? I’ve been at Silk City Fit for a little over a year now! I almost exclusively come to the 4:45 since that about when I get out of work but I’ll do 6pm every once in a while. 3. What’s your why? Why did you start? Why do you stay? I grew up playing soccer my whole life, practice 2-3 times a week and a game on the weekend but when I started college I didn’t exactly have the time to do organized sports. I went to the school gym whenever I could but it was just really boring being stagnant the entire time. One summer my cousin’s CF gym was having a groupon deal so I decided to try it out and I fell in love. The community...

1. Name Ashley Kalinauskas 2. How long have you been doing CrossFit (and at TBL)? What class(es) do you normally attend? I have been at Silk City Fit for almost 5 years now! When I started, the 7am class consisted of me, Steve Bosse, Sarah Gannon and Dave Anderson. Happy to say that the 7am class will always have my heart and most of my attendance, but I am also part of the Vest Buddies at the 7pm class as well! 3. What’s your why? Why did you start? Why do you stay? What brings me back is my commitment to the community. I love TBL and everyone that is a part of our gym. I started CrossFit because after college when I had always been on a sports team, my workout routines became stagnant. I really wanted something new that would challenge me. From the first day I started...
