Feature Image – Repost @crossfit ・・・Why do you do CrossFit? – Via @crossfitbluediamond: Stacy has been a member of CFBD for almost 3 years and she does CrossFit for her health! “I started CrossFit about two years after I had a stroke. While the hospital and OT Therapy helped me regain some of what I lost physically and mentally, I needed something to help keep me going and keep me sane. I’m not able to work because of the things I’ve lost but CrossFit has helped me keep going. I owe a lot to my coach and the care she takes into knowing my abilities and limits. It’s certainly frustrating to know how, pre-stroke, I was capable of so much more but through CrossFit I’ve learned to truly accept the me I am now and I’m okay with it.” -Stacy
