Push Up Man and Push Up Woman of the Year: Mikey Muna and Julie “Crash” Shamblin

If you missed the CFA Holiday Party, you might not have heard about our
2011 Push Up Man and Push Up Woman of the Year!

The Push-up Man and Woman of the year exemplify everything that we love about our athletes, our community, and the human spirit. Not only do these people walk through the doors of CFA day in and day out, and work hard to improve themselves; they go out of their way to lift up everyone around them. They make their friends and families a priority over themselves. They lead and encourage by words, actions, and example. They represent the burning spirit of what makes our little South Austin gym unique and special. We at CrossFit Austin can humbly bestow no greater honor on a person. We give our utmost heartfelt “thank you” for choosing to make our gym, business, family, and lives a better place!

Congratulations, and thank you, to
Mikey Muna and Julie “Crash” Shamblin
Push Up Man and Push Up Woman 2011!
