Eric was a coach at CrossFit Triple Threat in Red Bank, NJ. Rebekah lived in NYC but frequently came home in the summer and dropped in at CrossFit Triple Threat. In May of 2014 Rebekah moved back to Red Bank for good while searching for a new place to live in Asbury Park. Eric had just started going to a new gym in Neptune called Ocean CrossFit. He messaged Rebekah on Facebook telling her to come try it out. In March of 2015 Rebekah finally joined Ocean CrossFit. That summer they spent a lot of time together hanging out with other members of the gym. Eric went up to Rebekah's Vermont house for New Years that year. And since, they've been celebrating their anniversary (January 2nd) every year at Pascal and Sabine in Asbury Park, NJ, where they had their first official date.
