Andy used to run… A LOT. Long distances, frequently, sometimes alone and at other times with others. Well traveled routes, mapped distances, planned water breaks, and with reliable results. He put in the work and reaped the rewards. After many years of training- he started CrossFit with us- knowing that the knees were not in great shape. Also knowing that in the not too distant future he was going to have some work done on those well-traveled hinging joints. In the meantime he got strong. Much stronger than ever before (despite still not being able to touch that high school bench press record) and also learned to squat, deadlift, press,  clean, snatch, etc. After getting really strong and having those knees replaced, running became a thing of the past but the strength, power, speed and general fitness in ALL other areas led him into the future. Keep it up Andy.
