Carly's love of sports began with neighborhood soccer games, working her way up to national competitions in high school. After being recruited to a Division 1 team for college, Carly tore her hip flexor and left the game behind. After years of working out in traditional gym settings, writing her own strength programs, Carly longed to be part of a team or community again. That's when she found Crossfit.
