    Iʼve raised £320 to help with funding the Wodapalooza trip

    Funded on Saturday, 20th January 2018

    Story

    This year I decided that I would try something different and do the Wodapalooza online challenge workouts, as they now have an adaptive division. I didn't honestly think that I'd be fit enough to do half the workouts but I surprised myself! A lot of blood, sweat and tears later and I'm heading to Miami in January for my first proper crossfit competition. This is a three day event with 26 different categories competing. There are games athletes and teams as well as a very strong adaptive squad. I'm competing as part of the "standing" adaptive category. This has only been possible through the work that I've put in this last year. At the start of 2017 I was still using my wheelchair during wods. Fast-forward 10 months and I'm rocking about Crossfit East Kilbride on my crutches (even then they get dumped sometimes) and managing to lift on my own two feet. I'm proud of the progress that I've made over the last year. I've been helped along the way by awesome coaches, fantastic friends and the community spirit at CrossFit East Kilbride which never fails to lift you after particularly nasty wods.

    I'm looking forward to Miami and being able to prove to myself that anything is possible. If you would like to help by making a donation to help cover some of the costs I'd be very grateful.
