The People You Meet

One of the most unexpected and rewarding parts of being involved in CrossFit, and especially being part of a gym like CrossFit Indestri, isn’t just what you gain physically.

It’s who you gain in your life.

Over the years, it’s been incredible to look around and realize how many people have come into our lives because of this place. People we may never have crossed paths with otherwise. Different ages, different backgrounds, different stories, all brought together by the simple act of showing up, doing hard work, and supporting each other along the way.

We come together and share lifts, fist bumps, laughs, and sometimes even tears and through that, real friendships have formed, often times lifelong ones.

He probably doesn’t want anything mentioned, but I can’t not. Take Gustavo, for example. He and his wife Angie came to us nearly two years ago, from Colombia. We didn’t share the same first language, but that didn’t matter, because we spoke the same language of CrossFit. Hard work, effort, respect, and a willingness to learn and grow.

Gustavo has brought such good energy into every class. Always coachable. Always smiling, and always, always encouraging the others in class. Tomorrow is his last class with us, as he and Angie are heading back to Colombia. While he will be missed, the impact he made here will stick around as part of the Indestri family. We hope our paths cross again and that they end up back in Collingwood. If you’re around at noon tomorrow and can attend that class as Gustavo’s final class with us, we encourage you to do so.

The beautiful thing about this community is that it doesn’t fade when someone moves away. It stays with you, because what we’ve built, and continue building isn’t just about workouts. It’s about connection, and community.

And we’re grateful every day for the connections we’ve made because of CrossFit.
