Rasmus grew up in Denmark riding dirt bikes until one day he decided to throw on his old shoes and go run a couple miles. After coming to San Diego for language school, he could be found at Invictus doing the same class workout twice a day. Eventually he started training with the competitors, which led him to helping Team Invictus win the Affiliate Cup Championship in 2014. Since then he’s made two more trips back to the CrossFit Games. We talk about the challenges, obstacles, and personal growth that came with the journey from Denmark to San Diego. And San Diego to Dubai, where he's now also coaching at CrossFit Alioth. I had a blast learning more about his story. Wishing him the best of luck as he sets out to compete at the Meridian Regional in Spain this weekend! I hope you enjoy this conversation along with his exquisite accent. Show Notes: - (7:16) - Coming to the U.S. for language school
