Athlete Spotlight – Todd & Jami S.

Introducing CFO Spotlight Athletes is fun. I believe this is our first duo Spotlight Athlete. Todd and Jami Sill have been a fun addition to CrossFit Oakdale. I’m glad they proved themselves wrong and gaveCrossFit a go. They both ooze a youthful vibrancy while at the same time a mature easy going-ness.
Jami and Todd are super coachable, move well, and are getting stronger. So here we go…..here’s Jami and Todd!
How were you introduced to CFO? When did you realize CrossFit was for you?
J: At the end of last May, my friend Karen asked me to try CFO with her. I soon found myself anticipating the next workout and looking forward to seeing the people and coaches at CFO. T: My wife had been going to CFO six months prior to me starting. She wanted me to go with her and after seeing the results she was getting, I decided to give it a try.
What is your first impression ?
J&T: We both were afraid that it would be too hard for us at our age (not young). We were surprised to find out, with the help of the coaching staff, that CFO is for everybody, young or old.
What do like best about going to CrossFit Oakdale?
J: I love that even though I think I won’t make it through the workouts, I do, and I feel great when I’m finished. (Also what Todd said for me too)
T: It fits my schedule, the variety of the workouts, but most of all the coaches. They are always right there to help out with each and every movement. It’s like having a personal trainer.
I have always wanted to…..
J&T: We have both always wanted to go to Sicily. And hopefully will someday.
One word people use to describe me:
J: Loyal
T: Trustworthy
Outside of the gym I like to…..
J&T: We both like to work at the ranch a horseback. We love visiting our daughter on the coast. We love spending time with our son and his wife. Going out and traveling with friends and family. Boating
Three things in my fridge:
J&T: Peanut Butter, eggs, and always Champagne!
The last thing you ate:
J&T: Clean egg casserole.
Something no one knows about me or would be surprised to know:
J&T: No surprises with us (though Todd does love Barry Manilow music).
Favorite physical activity outside of CrossFit Oakdale:
J: Riding, hiking
T: Working a horseback
Favorite place to eat:
J: Any place with a great steak, or a clean restaurant. T: At home. My wife’s a great cook.
Proudest accomplishment:
