CrossFit Radio Episode 372

On Episode 372 of CrossFit Radio, Justin Judkins interviewed CrossFit Naperville owner Neil Khant and multiyear CrossFit Games competitor Michele Letendre. This episode was webcast on March 11, 2015.

1:43 Over the years, Neil Khant has used a lot of creativity to build a successful affiliate in Illinois. With St. Patrick’s Day on the horizon, one of Khant’s favorite signature events is coming up: the sixth annual edition of Green Beer and Burpees, a workout and pub day. Khant spoke about the origins of the popular tradition, and he also described several programs he offers at CrossFit Naperville before giving his opinion on good programming.

12:52 Michele Letendre competed with Emily Bridgers immediately after Open Workout 15.2 was announced. Letendre talked about her experience at the event in Austin, Texas, and said she had a hunch 15.2 would be a repeat of a test from a previous year. She explained her strategy for the couplet of overhead squats and pull-ups, and she said she loves competing live in front of a crowd. The Canadian said she believes she’s a more well-rounded athlete this year, and she spoke about trying to land on the podium this year after finishing fourth at the CrossFit Games in 2014.
