Tell us about yourself!
I am originally from Honduras but have lived in Colorado so long I qualify as a "native".
I am married to my wonderful wife Teresa. We have two sons: Lucas (second year medical school) and Zac (senior in college and applying to Physical Therapy school this coming year.) I work as a project manager for an industrial company. I love anything outdoors - (specially on the back of a horse) plus anything else up in the mountains.

Why do you CrossFit?
I started CrossFit when it wasn't popular. I have always been active but i was going through a rough patch health wise (overweight and out of shape, no energy, high blood pressure, cholesterol, etc etc). The normal gyms never got me into shape. Plus, as we know, we cannot out exercise a bad diet.
Yep - you guessed it - the CrossFit path took me to another dimension - personally, professionally, mentally, and to a level of healthy like never before. Food is my medicine. And my new motto is "the older I get the stronger, faster I get" and continue to get.

What makes CCCF so special?
I cannot emphasize enough the level of professionalism in coaching here. The exercise is creating change, the experience is creating change. The community supports the change and it is an ever increasing momentum of exercise, experience, community great results and I continue to go back for more.
Great coaches. Great people. Glad to be part of this community.
