Tricia Floyd Virginia Strength and Power HoF inductee 2021
By Strength and Power Hall of Fame
Give us a brief presport history.
My presport days were brief. Before lifting I was a track and field athlete. I started running in the 3rd grade and competed in track and field up until my college days. I was all state and set many records. I ran indoor and outdoor and competed in all the sprints. My best event was the 400 M, in which I was all state. I went on to graduate from VSU with a B.A. in Mass Communication and minored in English. From 2014 to 2018 I trained and competed in Crossfit. I also compete in Natural Bodybuilding and won my Pro card in 2017. Since then I have competed in several Pro Bodybuilding shows placing top 3 and earning prize money. I also competed in NPC and am nationally qualified.
