CrossFit Moxie’s early days look much like those of many boxes around the world: An interested guy/gal starts throwing around barbells in the garage and invites a few friends. A few friends turn into a gang, and eventually more space is needed. A business is born.
For CrossFit Moxie’s owner himself, the CrossFit journey has been a bit of a different story, though. A long string of injuries turned Chris Michelmore, a former soccer player, to new fitness pursuits. Since taking up CrossFit, Michelmore has gone well beyond a state of rehabilitation with his injuries, and he finished 29th at the Southwest Regional.
His accomplishments in his personal fitness now mirror the success of his business.
