Published: March 30, 2015, 11:26 p.m.

In our episode on “Is CF Worth It,” Heavey kept mentioning the 40-year old mom demographic… and that stirred up some emotions on Facebook. So, we brought a mom onto the show to discuss her experience. In this episode we discuss Cassandra’s experience in CrossFit over the last two years. Her big change in body composition. And her keys to success. We also enjoy a very fine 12 year Bowmore Single Malt.
