Things Trending Up

Today, CrossFit and Nicole Carole announced her return to CrossFIt Inc. this comes after a three-week span in which she had walked away from the company, demanding change like so many others.

Nicole Carole is a CrossFit OG, and one of the most respected up and ups within our community. When she left HQ, it was a big sign that things would never be the same. It was a necessary move for the community, to bring about change, and to make a difference.

Just over three weeks ago I resigned my position with CrossFit. Today, I could not be happier to make the announcement that I am returning. Walking away from something I spent so many years helping build; my livelihood, the only career I've known and a team whom I love dearly, was one of the hardest decisions I've ever had to make; both personally & professionally. While it may have appeared that a single issue or instance prompted my leaving, this was not the totality of it. However, that's in the past. At this time, I want to focus on the present and my hope for the future. I am greatly encouraged by the conversations I've shared with @rozaeric over the last couple of weeks. In fact, with each interaction, I'm filled with ever more optimism. There is hope and healing in the air for the community. There is an authentic commitment to creating a healthy & inclusive company culture, mending relationships, innovating forward, and restoring a sense of pride in the CrossFit name. I want to be part of this future. Finally, I can't even begin to say thank you enough to everyone for their messages of love and support; many of them made me cry but all filled dark days with much needed light. Thank you. I am ready for a new beginning and the opportunity to be back where I belong. #committedtocrossfit . . . 📷: @davexre

Now that she has returned, it’s simply a sign that things will never be the same because they are going to get better than they ever have been before.
