As an athlete
Megan started CrossFit in 2011, initially as a way to break up a long commute in California after burning out on running. A former lacrosse player, she found the intensity matched what she had been missing in endurance training. She has since climbed to the Semifinals level — the top tier of CrossFit athletes worldwide — twice.
