For more than seven years, Michelle was a constant presence in our gym and an inspiration to everyone who knew her. But her greatest workouts didn’t happen inside these walls—they happened every single day as she courageously fought cancer for more than 20 years.
Michelle faced multiple battles with skin cancer, breast cancer, and, for the last five years, a brain tumor. Through it all, she continued to show up, put in the work, and refused to let her diagnosis define her. Her strength wasn’t measured by the weight on the barbell, but by her unwavering determination, relentless fighting spirit, and the courage she displayed every day.
Michelle inspired us not because cancer couldn’t slow her down—it certainly challenged her—but because she met every obstacle with grace, grit, and an incredible will to keep moving forward. She reminded us that true strength is found in perseverance, heart, and never giving up.
Although Michelle lost her final battle on Saturday, July 25, her legacy lives on in every person she encouraged and every life she touched.
Today’s Memorial WOD is dedicated to Michelle. As you push through every rep and every round, remember the example she set. When it gets hard, keep fighting. When you want to quit, think of Michelle.
Fight like Michelle. 💕
