She initially joined CrossFit to work out and pass the time while her children were at gymnastics practice. However, her love for CrossFit quickly grew and before long, she was hooked.

She later took up long-distance running to stay in shape. After successfully completing numerous ½ marathons, a triathlon, and a full marathon, she found CrossFit and has not looked back.

After that introduction, there was no turning back. CrossFit was the catalyst for changing the family’s nutrition and outlook on fitness.

The highlight of her CrossFit career was competing with her team at the CrossFit Games in Aromas in 2009. Heidi has now been coaching CrossFit for 3 years and continues to compete in local NorCal Events. Heidi gets the most satisfaction as a trainer seeing the progress her athletes make.

She found CrossFit when looking for something new to get back into shape after a ski injury a few years prior required reconstruction of her ACL in the left knee. Sara says it~SQ~s hard to know if her knee is better now than before the injury, but her reconstructed knee is better than her healthy one. Sara has competed in several team Masters competitions and credits CrossFit for her being stronger now in her mid forties than she was in her mid twenties. <br> <br>In high school, Sara competed in Track and Field, participating in 3 field events (high jump, long jump and triple jump) and track 5 track events (100 yd. dash, 200 yd. dash, 440, 440 relay, and mile relay.) Running anything over 400m continues to be her Achilles Heel. While pursuing a college degree in veterinary medicine, Sara continued to remain active by attending aerobics classes and light weight training, but became easily bored with the regular routines of Globo gyms. After becoming a mother and deciding to stay home while her children were young, she exercised on her own and attended a Curves studio to maintain some form of fitness. As her children grew and became involved in gymnastics, she decided to give CrossFit at try. A month later she was hooked. <br> <br>Sara has incorporated what she has learned from CrossFit while teaching PE and Health to 5th-8th grades students at Oroville Christian School for the past three years. Sara also works as a reading and language aide in the second grade class. Sara has been a part of Oroville Christian School for 2007 and thoroughly enjoys working with children, but her greatest joy is spending time with her husband Chris and their two children Noah and Sofia, putting their CrossFit to good use in the great outdoors. She enjoys traveling, camping, skiing, and visiting other CrossFit gyms wherever life takes her. <br> <br>On January 1, 2014 Sara and her husband Chris, decided to open Oroville CrossFit with a group of fellow CrossFitters who had become close friends. In April of 2014 she decided to become a Level 1 Certified Trainer. You will find Sara coaching the 6 am class on Tuesdays and Thursdays, the 11:30 BCPD corporate class mid-week, and other classes as needed. Sara has attended Kelly Starett’s Mobility Course and strongly believes in the combined practice of mobility and CrossFit. You’ll even find her attending Yoga classes at Exhale Studio in Oroville. <br> <br>Sara is a CrossFit Level 1 Trainer <br> <br><a href=~SQ~mailto:sara@orovillecrossfit.com~SQ~ target=~SQ~_blank~SQ~>Contact Sara</a></td></table>"))

She is a 25 year veteran to Olympic Weightlifting, competing in numerous Senior National competitions, Masters National and International competitions. Veronica holds past and current PWA Senior and Master records, Masters National and Masters World Records. Her passion for the sport of Weightlifting is what drives her to continue to compete and has enabled her to return to the National stage despite having had two shoulder and a hip arthroscopies in recent years. Veronica has coached several youth athletes to the National Youth Championships, Junior Nationals, American Open and Senior Nationals in the last six years, placing in the top three each time and garnering local and National School Age records for her athletes. In addition, Veronica has accepted assignments to coach Youth and Junior Elite camps at the Colorado Olympic Training Center in Colorado. <br> <br>Coach Carpenter worked as a private personal trainer as well as a trainer for the 24 Hr Nautilus/24 Hr Fitness chain for several years prior to relocating to Oroville. After discovering CrossFit through internet social channels in 2005 she was intrigued. To add a little variety in her training, she began to regularly include short CrossFit WODs as an adjunct to her Olympic Weightlifting training. Veronica was a long time regular contributor on the CrossFit Discussion Boards, but has found more satisfaction in coaching at her local CrossFit boxes. Veronica has since conducted a number of Olympic Weightlifting clinics for other CrossFit affiliates, both locally and while traveling. Veronica has also started an after school Weightlifting club at a local middle school. Like many old school pre-CrossFit Weightlifting coaches, Coach Carpenter is dedicated to maintaining the quality of Olympic lifts through teaching proper lifting technique to anyone interested in learning and improving their abilities.
