Lisa Bender Thiel
Director of Operation, CrossFit Central
I’ve always been competitive and athletic – I ran my first 5k with my mom at age 9 and 20 yrs later to the date I ran a 10k with my mom in Quito! You can look at my career and see a string of athletic, academic, and professional success. I’ve been in the fitness industry for ten years and a background in outside sales for Adidas and Fila. When I moved to Austin in 2003 I became an avid Sprint and Olympic distance triathlete.
