Brian Frerichs
- Nickname: None that I’m aware of…
- Favorite healthy food: bananas
- Favorite unhealthy food: chocolate & peanut butter (quite possibly the most perfect combination of foods ever invented)
- Favorite workout music: 80’s/90’s metal/hard rock
- Favorite way to spend a Saturday night: getting a baby sitter to come over after my daughter goes to bed so Susan and I can go out for a date!
- What I do to recover: nothing in particular…sleep, foam roller sometimes.
- Favorite Crossfit movement: snatches and double unders
- Favorite Legacy moment: Watching Susan do The Open in 2014 while she was pregnant, so proud of her!
- Favorite restaurant: FlipSide in Hudson
- Favorite quote: “What got you to where you are today won’t get you to where you want to be.”
- Meet anyone (who and why): Even though I’ve already “met” her, I would want to meet my mom who passed away about 4 years ago. I would like for her to be able to see how much her granddaughter has grown and developed since she last saw her, and I’d like to be able to say so many more things to her that I never got around to telling her while I had the chance.
- Best gift ever received: Sounds weird, but many years ago my parents got me a travel toiletry kit that I still use today.
- Best advice ever received: “You live and you learn.” (from my dad)
- Biggest pet peeve: People who generally don’t pay attention and/or people who lack basic awareness of their surroundings.
- Weird fact: I’ve officiated I’ve hockey at 2 Paralympic Games (2010 in Vancouver, 2014 in Sochi), and along the way to those achievements I’ve broken my jaw twice (in the same spot).
- Something random: I really want to be a contestant on Jeopardy! I’ve taken the online test a few times, and I figure since I haven’t heard back from them that I didn’t qualify…
