S2 Episode 2: Keeping fitness simple, the journey of a Crossfit Games Athlete - Emma McQuaid
Manage episode 430510017 series 3588282
Today's guest is 6 times Crossfit Games athlete Emma McQuaid.
Emma is an extremely competitive athlete and has just recently qualified for the 2024 Crossfit Games in Fort Worth, Texas.
Emma has been competing in Crossfit for 10 years and qualified for her first games after only 2 years of training and she has been up there with the best ever since.
It hasn’t always been a series of highs for Emma. She talks about an unfortunate life changing accident to her now husband, which led her to leave the sport of quad bike racing. This was the sport that she grew up with and had competed in for most of her life. This resulted in losing a professional contract, however, it was this very change that led her on a path to a successful Crossfit career.
Emma has a very relaxed approach when it comes to her training, she just simply follows her plan and gets it done. If she’s done the work and somehow avoided injury, then that’s all she can do.
We’re excited to see Emma compete at the 2024 Crossfit Games and want to wish her the best of luck with the competition and prep which is now underway.
Grab a coffee, sit back and relax and enjoy the episode!
