Emily Rutherford
Coach at OC Gym Bend

CrossFit Level 2, CrossFit Level 1, Precision Nutrition Certified Professional in Exercise Nutrition, National Academy of Sports Medicine-Certified Personal Trainer, Two-Brain First Degree Coach, Diabetes Prevention Program Certified, CPR/AED and Basic FirstAID Certified. Emily grew up playing a wide variety of sports from soccer and softball to field hockey, which she played in college and coached at the college level. But after a period of inactivity she went through her own personal health journey, changed careers to focus on health, and became a diehard runner.

Once she moved to Bend in 2015 she found herself working from home, spending a lot of miles on the trails by herself, and struggling to find a community. Looking for a new gym in Bend where she could also have a social outlet, led her to OC. That was her first experience with CrossFit and the community, and she’s been hooked ever since. In addition to personal training & coaching group classes, Emily is OC’s full time Nutrition Coach. Emily’s extensive background & experience as a professional health & lifestyle coach is an invaluable resource for the OC Community.

Personally, when Emily isn’t supporting others in their health journeys, she enjoys exploring Bend’s trails, rivers, caves, lakes, and mountains. If she’s not sitting by the river reading a book or ripping through Phils trail complex on her mountain bike, she’s probably in her kitchen whipping up the next best healthiest dish you ever tasted!
