Prototype Kid of the Month: Lily Hanks
lily
My name is Lily Hanks and I’m 13 years old. I play soccer and dance, and I love to read. I have a sister and 2 cats, and my favorite color is blue. I go to Hopkinton Middle School and I’m in the eighth grade. My two favorite subjects are math and science, seeing as I want to be a marine biologist when I grow up.
I’ve been going to CrossFit Prototype for over a year now, and I love it. It’s not only a great way to get in shape, but I’ve met so many wonderful people there. I go 4 days a week, and it’s one of my favorite things. I really like the variety of skills we do in each WOD, because every day is a new one. That way, I learn many different skills and never get bored. It’s intense, but I like the challenge. It’s helped me stay in shape for dance and soccer, and it’s widened my social group. It’s nice because I have my family, my Hopkinton friends, and then my CrossFit family. The coaches are amazing because they are always there for me. They make sure I’m doing everything right and motivate me to do my best, and I thank them for that. I don’t have a favorite part of CrossFit, because I like everything about it (besides the burpees). It’s just something I’m really passionate about, and I’m so glad I got involved with CrossFit Prototype.
