For this next Who’s Who we have Josh. Josh has been working out with the Games team, competed individually at Sectionals, and as part of our affiliate team at Regionals.
How were you introduced to Crossfit? -A friend of mine is part owner of crossfit RVA He was a relentless promoter…it only took three short years before I caved in.
Favorite WOD/lift: – probably the snatch
I have always wanted to- Be able to fly (I think enough crossfit and I’ll get there)
1 word people use to describe me:- FUN!! (sarcastic)
Outside of the gym I like to- Hang out with family and friends/go to the beach
Something nobody knows about me or would be surprised to know about me:-hmmm….I was in the airforce..Suprise!!
Favorite physical activity outside of Crossfit:- Golf
Favorite place to eat in Portland: -Thats a tough one….gonna have to say Yakuza
Song that gets me pumped up for a workout: -not a huge fan, but for some reason Eminem gets me going??
Proudest accomplishment: -My two Girls for sure
Your my hero josh; seriously, for the freakin’ man! You have spirit for days, amazing human energy and hands down one of the best people I have met at CF since I joined. It is a pleasure to be able to suffer gloriously with you day in and day out my friend.

MAGIC MAN!!!
Let the dogs out Nick!
Dr. J! I’m looking forward to getting super strong with you over the next year. It’s been great training with you for The Games.
I was thinking about the team C&J, and how silly it seems as a test – reading about it and hearing Erin’s report seemed to verify the “weird and silly” factor – and then Ben bailed on a squat, and we had to re-rack the bar. What did we do to get it there? Effectively a paired clean – but with us standing at either end of the bar, and not in the middle. So maybe not so silly.
We should push for a competition obstacle course as a games WOD – 10k run with obstacles/lifts/tasks every 1k – sort of like an super-chipper.
If they programmed that kind of a workout for the games, I would train for it.
I will admit your girls are very cute Josh…I think they are daddy’s girls…the way they were looking for you doing your muscle ups clear at the other end of the arena! =)Nice job on the affiliate team and I will see you in a couple of weeks after our break! =)
