🏋️♂️Amazing Human Alert! 🚨
Congratulations to on her 100th class! 💯
Astrid is one of those people who quietly becomes absolutely essential to a community.
Somewhere along the way, she stopped feeling like “a member” and simply became part of the foundation of this place.
Honestly, it’s hard to imagine CrossFit Exit 19 without Astrid… or Marcus. ❤️
She is an incredibly talented artist, genuinely funny, endlessly sweet, and one of the most generous humans you’ll ever meet.
She literally keeps us caffeinated with the most delicious coffee, which, let’s be honest, has probably contributed to lots of shenanigans on our behalf. ☕😏
Astrid has the best attitude toward this sport.
She’s always willing to try something new, always open to learning, and never takes herself too seriously.
This is the woman who will happily wear a party hat during class because someone else is being celebrated.
That’s Astrid.
She loves celebrating people just as much as she loves being part of the fun.
She has brought wonderful new friends into our community, shows up to community hangs, and is always investing in the relationships that make this place feel like home.
She’s also become quite the athlete.
A lover of barbells, burpees (I don’t know if this is true - I suspect it isn’t- but she does them as if she DOES like them!), and laughing through workouts with all of her favorite people.
She works incredibly hard, trusts the process, and recently hit a deadlift PR that had all of us celebrating right alongside her.
And then there’s Wendell. We fully support any excuse to see more Wendell always. 🐶
Also Astrid never minds when Joanne casually slips on her clogs and prances around the gym.
Some people would find that rude, but not you, Astrid. Not you.
Astrid, you are an absolute dream of a human.
Thank you for your generosity, your humor, your giant heart, your coffee, your friendship, and for helping build the kind of community we always hoped this gym could be.
100 classes in, and we can’t wait for hundreds more laughs, PRs, burpees (your favorite… somehow), and memories together. 🩵🏋️♂️
