This Month our athlete of the month is the hard working Kris Munroe
How long have you been at this CrossFit business?
Started at the barn in Carnation in September of 2012. It’s scary to think back to when I started I remember being very intimidated by all the weight everyone was lifting. I felt the weakest person around and I was. I could barely lift the bar. I think I felt physically sick after every workout for the first 2 months. I can never stop now because I never want to go back to that feeling.
How have you developed into a such ninja?
I started just going two days a week for about 2 years and I progressed very slowly. The most improvement I have seen has been since I started at CrossFit Big Rock and then jumped it up to going 4-5 times a week. It really makes a huge difference the more time you put in the more you get out of it.
Where is your favorite place to travel?
Chelan
What is your least favorite move to see on the board?
It used to be almost everything but really the only thing that I hate to see now is thrusters at 95. (Better work on that this year) Fran brings back those good old sick feelings I used to have.
What is your most favorite?
TTB

“Kris has the most focus and persistence to get through any kind of a WOD of anyone I know and comes out smiling every time.”
“He never gives up!”
“Athlete of the month? Kris of course.”
“Great motivation, working out next to Kris.”
