Welcome to the Open 2015
The Open is a truly global event which brings together the community as a whole: from athletes with regional aspirations to those who have been training for a matter weeks - The Open is for everyone.

Why do I train?
From a very young age, sport has been a huge part of my life. I was lucky enough to have supportive parents and teachers who encouraged me to try as many different sports as I could. Athletics was the one sport that I was desperate to get involved with, but waiting until I was 8 years old to join my local athletics club seemed like waiting an eternity.

Why do I Train?
I began training in October 2010, my discovery of the sport aligned with the beginning of my second year of University and like most people I was hooked within months. CrossFit Leeds fast became my second home and I was lucky enough to compete on their Regionals team in both 2011 and 2012.
