-THE ROAD BACK TO CROSSFIT GAMES- 

In 2025 I was ready for my comeback as an individual crossfit athlete, after years of hitting one wall after another with injuries and overtraining. Or so I thought. A few days before season start, I hit a new one. And this time it was worse. This time it could be a career ender. 

Spring of 26, I am back competing for a Games spot, against all odds. 

We have made a documentary series about this journey, telling the story of what actually happened that day, how I coped with the message that my athlete life could be over and my way back to where I am today. 

Want to follow along to see if I earn the spot to the 2026 Crossfit Games?
