Mark's Story

Meet Mark

What brought you to the CrossFit Closer family in the first place?
​
Darren Dukes, and a desire to improve my fitness. I'm a father of two young children, and found it difficult to work in a fitness regime into my schedule, read excuses.

I work with Darren, he encouraged me to come and try out a class at CFC. One class was enough to motivate me to try it out. I enjoyed the variation, and frankly the hard work. The people are awesome, so much better than going to soul-less gym to move iron around.  

What's your proudest moment so far?
Entering the open (competition), albeit doing scaled everything.

What's your best / funniest CrossFit Closer story or experience?
The first few times attempting a snatch.  I think it was 45lbs, maybe 65lbs. I would either fall forward, or backwards every time.  A bit embarrassing, but funny.
