Athlete Profile - Todd Widman
A leader can shape those around him by showing them the way forward. Todd Widman leads by example in the CrossFit Seminar world with both his presentation of theory -as a head trainer - and his demonstration of practice - as an outstanding athlete . On February 27th and 28th he will be competing in the Washington Sectional.
"I love CrossFit. I love the WOD's, the people, the founder, Rainier CrossFit, and the collective camaraderie that is felt between all who expose themselves to the forge of these workouts. My desire to compete in the Washington Sate Sectionals is nothing more than another outlet for me to give back to all of this. CrossFit has changed my life. The question for me is not 'why am I going to compete' but 'why not?'. Regardless of outcome it will be another opportunity to be an active part of this exceptional company."

You were the head trainer at my Level 1 Cert in Portland (11/08) and I greatly enjoyed your instruction, and humble nature. I will see you at the quals, I know you will put forth an excellent performance.

Wow, you all did a great job teaching! If you can keep the attention of a pregnant woman, mother of a 1 year old and someone who was exhausted from a big move.....that is GOOD! I fully enjoyed the weekend class! Please forward this to ALL the instructors! AMAZING! Great TEAM! You all were filled with positive energy. It seemed like you all loved to teach and really enjoyed people! I did not pass the test, not because you did not teach well, just not the best test taker and everything was so new to me! I hope one day to PASS it and be able to be a certified teacher! Thank you so so so much! YOU ALL DID A GREAT JOB! THANK YOU!
