Abbey Daw
What have you been doing since high school? Not married, but teaching Group Fitness full time for Life Time Fitness. I teach classes such as spinning, tai chi, pilates, yoga and total conditioning.
I also have been a children’s ski instructor at Alta for 3 seasons and I love every minute spent out on the slopes. As you can see I am very Involved in many athletics. Some people would call me crazy but it has been so awesome. I love to compete in marathons, Tri’s and road cycling races. I have ran 7 marathons including the Boston and the NYC marathons, which was a major highlight for me.
I am currently training for my first Ironman that I will be doing in AZ in 2009. I work as a marketing rep for Blackbottoms Cycle Wear. I have been mainly working which has put a stop to my schooling but I am currently finishing my last two semesters of school at UVU in English Lit. Right now I am working on and hoping to write a novel and publish it someday soon.
What is your current favorite song?
Missy Higgins-Where I stood
Favorite food indulgence?
Sushi, Sushi and Sushi!
Worst habit?
I am a worrier!
Sun or snow?
I am a summer girl at heart, but in the winter I love to ski! The snow is not bad for a little while. I am just not crazy about the length of our Utah winters.
What is one of your guilty pleasures?
OH boy I love frosting, any kind would do for me. I can’t control myself if I make a cake and there is a tub right in front of me. I would eat it before it even was spread on the cake.
Craziest thing you have ever done?
I rode my bike 206 miles in one day from Logan to Jackson Hole. It took almost 13 hours. I am doing it again this year. I am crazy!
Oh and that one time when I danced in front of our Alta students at a girls basketball game in spandex and a shirt with a golden retriever on the front. All because Danny Westinskow told me it would be funny! I would never in my wildest dreams think of doing anything like that again…I was a dork! Anyone remember? I hope not!What makes you laugh?
My brother, dad and little sister make me laugh the most. The Office is brilliant, it is hilarious! I do like watching any movie with Vince Vaughn, Ben Stiller, Jack Black, Tina Fey and Amy Poeller.
Life would be more simple if…
If I didn’t have to worry about dating anymore, not fun! If we could live in the present day instead of worrying about what happened yesterday and what is going to happen tomorrow. If we could all just ride our bikes everywhere and didn’t have to worry about gas prices!
Your greatest accomplishments?
My 7 marathons, Lotoja 2 times, Boston Marathon 2006
