Caitlin Spencer

Caitlin has been doing CrossFit consistently for a couple of years. She was previously a competitive swimmer for 15 years and competed at the Division I level in college at the University of Connecticut. One of her swim coaches in high school was a CrossFit trainer who taught her the importance of lifting with good form and helped open her eyes to how CrossFit could aid her sport. She would do CrossFit with her mom during the summers and whenever she was home for breaks in college, and fell in love with the community and challenge it provided.

CrossFit has helped Caitlin tremendously through her transition from being a college athlete to her post-grad life. It provides her structure, a competitive atmosphere, and most importantly a welcoming and supportive community that makes going to the gym her favorite part of the day. She loves how CrossFit is inclusive, adaptable, and can provide benefit for people of all ages and ability levels — her grandmother even tried CrossFit! She looks forward to sharing her passion for CrossFit with others and showing members how special it is to be a part of the CrossFit Sturbridge community.
