Athlete Profile-Janet Snider

Janet Snider started training with Todd Ovall back in 2007, at the YMCA. She is the longest-standing member of CrossFit LifeSport. "I wanted to be stronger and able to take care of myself", she says. Janet has accomplished that, for sure! She is in the gym, working out, 2-3 mornings a week. 

Education, through reading, was her career for a long time....now Janet teaches by example, in the fitness arena instead of the library.

Janet exemplifies what we can do, both physically and mentally, if we have the drive. She is proud to be doing things many people her age can't. At 68 years young, Janet is healthy and strong. She wants to"be an example/role model for younger women that we can be strong and active through-out all our life".

Always smiling, always friendly...Janet is a joy to work out with.
