The CrossFit Open is finally upon us and who better to chat past open workouts with than Superman himself - Jamie Warr. Affiliate owner, head of JST Class and a pretty decent athlete in his own right (just make sure there's a sick bucket on hand), Jamie discusses his road into CrossFit, building a culture of inclusivity and hardwork at Cattle Dog CrossFit, the challenges of coaching Rabs through a marathon and a shift of focus for the 2026 season.

Episode 15 - Kelly Morris

In this episode we chat to Kelly Morris. Kelly is an avid CrossFitter, co-owner of Hotpod Yoga Birmingham and soon to be marathon runner.  Kelly would be the first to admit that running hasn't always been her favourite activity but is ready to take on the physical and mental challenge as part of #TeamBowelCancerUK. Last year, one of Kelly's best friends, Rachel, was diagnosed with bowel cancer. Rach was 35 when she was diagnosed and on maternity leave with her son; Noah. On the day she was due to return to work she instead spent it having her first round of chemotherapy.
