Why I'm Doing the Crossfit Open(Again)!

Ten years ago, I signed up for my very first CrossFit Open. It was nerve-wracking, exciting, and one of the best decisions I ever made. Now, in 2025, I’m stepping into my eighth Open—and I wouldn’t miss it for the world.

For me, the Open isn’t just about competition; it’s about community, camaraderie, and growth. There’s nothing quite like the energy in the gym when everyone comes together to test their fitness, cheer each other on, and celebrate every PR—no matter how big or small.

Looking back at my first Open, I remember struggling through workouts that now feel like second nature. But that’s the magic of it. The Open gives you a snapshot of your progress year after year. It pushes you outside your comfort zone, proving what you’re capable of and reminding you why you started in the first place.

So why do I keep coming back? Because the Open is more than just a competition—it’s a global event that brings the CrossFit community together in the best way possible. Whether it’s your first time or your tenth, there’s always something special about stepping onto that competition floor and giving it your all.
