A little get-to-know-you moment with the guy behind the workouts (and the ring) 😏❤️ Craig and I met my freshmen year of college and he’s been in my corner ever since—through every high, low, injury, breakthrough, and big goal. Now he’s coaching me full-time, and I couldn’t ask for a better teammate on and off the track.
