Brooke’s Message

“Thank you for the overwhelming messages of support. There is no community like this and although I am heartbroken, I’m thriving off your energy and love.

Last night I dislocated my elbow during the max snatch event, and was forced to medically withdrawal.

I dedicated my life to being prepared for this year’s CrossFit Games and I’m absolutely the fittest I’ve ever been.

To not be able to fight for a podium spot…crushes me, but I’ll be back.

Thank you to the extremely professional medical staff that treated me on-site. This is a speedbump and it’s all part of my journey.

God’s plan is bigger than mine.”
