Introduction Text I've used Spark several times in the past with great results! This time on SP is about a lifelong commitment of health and wellness rather than months of me fixing me only to fall off the wagon again! Another big step in my journey? LOVING fitness and building muscle! I've really enjoyed adding CrossFit, weight lifting, running, biking, rowing, Yoga and so much more to my life this time around! Strange to say I've joined the elite club of people who can call themselves runners! I ran my first 5k in December 2015 and my first 1/2 marathon in March 2016! I ran a race every month from December 2015 to August 2016! In 2018 I ran my first 10k and plan to train for another half marathon in the near future. Crossfit has become my saving grace. I love doing it, how it makes me feel AND how it makes me look. I'm strong now - which I NEVER used to be! And who doesn't like flexing their new found muscles all the time? (yes, I do it in the mirror - sorry - I'm proud!) I did the 2017, 2018 and 2019 Crossfit Open and was so proud to compete! The me outside of my workouts? I'm a "29" (yes, I'm 29 forever - argue with me, I'll disagree) year old Quality Consultant who works with medical devices. I'm happily married , and have a beautiful 12 year old step daughter. I love to read, cook, watch scary tv shows and movies and spending time with my friends. I throw darts, drink beer, love Steelers football and am amazingly good at Cards Against Humanity! I have a love for fresh local foods, am a supporter of small businesses and have been a vegetarian for 20+ years!

I've had the pleasure of reaching many past goals here on spark! This time around - it's about fixing my lifestyle once again - and being happy with the process rather than the hard # results. And it's about getting as FIT as possible. I'm looking to drop my body fat, increase my overall body structure and gain some good muscles!

I stick to my 1200-1550 calories a day - staying strict with my meal tracker. I attend Crossfit 3-4 times a week. Outside of Crossfit I go for walks, runs, bike to work and do workout videos.

I have a tattoo on my butt - is that personal enough? :-)

I ran and finished my first 1/2 marathon in March 2016! Time: 2 Hours, 32 minutes and 56 seconds. Goal: To convince myself to run the mini heart again and shave those 2 minutes and 56 seconds off of my time!
