Listen "8 // Objectively, Respectfully: Reflections from the 2024 CrossFit Games"
Episode Synopsis
Welcome back to Positively Jacked with Nate and Jes. In today’s episode, we’re diving into a topic that’s both on and off our usual path. While we’ve been eager to discuss the CrossFit Games all year, recent events in the CrossFit community have shifted our focus.
With the 2024 CrossFit Games behind us, we’re addressing the tragic and untimely passing of Lazar Ðukić during the event—a moment that has left a lasting impact on the sport and its community. We were present for the event, and the weekend. We’ll share our personal experiences, reflect on the emotional and ethical dilemmas, and discuss the broader implications for the future of CrossFit.
We’re committed to a thoughtful and sensitive conversation, sticking to what we know and avoiding speculation. This episode will explore the need for change and accountability within CrossFit HQ and the sport at large, focusing on safety, clarity, and the future of the sport.
Please note: This episode may be difficult for some listeners, and we encourage you to prioritize your well-being.
Tune in for a discussion that’s as challenging as it is necessary, as we look forward to what’s next for CrossFit.
