**CONGRATULATIONS, Carley Marie! Our August CrossFitter of the month!**
About Carley:
I am truly honored to be nominated as CrossFit Wallingford’s crossfitter of the month. Over the past year, I have grown to not only love the sport, but the people who do it as well. Everyone at CrossFit Wallingford is welcoming, encouraging, and supportive.
I can still remember how nervous I was the day I signed up. Just alone, the Box Rules on the website already had me anxious, stating that there would be a 10 burpee penalty for those who arrived late to the class (which we all know how that goes. But that feeling of anxiousness is what CrossFit is all about; anxiousness is adrenaline, it’s excitement, and it gets you to do things you never thought you could. I believe this is why I have been addicted to CrossFit ever since I started.
I can honestly say that CrossFit has helped me develop as an individual. It has taught me how to adapt, put myself out there, and learn to be comfortable in uncomfortable situations. Seeing my progression and receiving encouragement from others has given me confidence in the gym, which has transcended into my daily life. I would not know where I would be in life if it weren’t for sending that initial email to Rob and Ron inquiring about joining their gym.
CrossFit is more than just a sport to me. It is a family and a support system that I feel blessed to be a part of. And, I am truly thankful that I have CrossFit Wallingford to call home.
**Awesome work, Carley! You have made amazing progress and we are so happy to have you in the CFW community. We know you’ll keep working hard and continue to grow**
