Each year at the CrossFit Games, they honor someone with the Spirit of the Games award. This honor goes to the ‘athlete who embodies the spirit of the sport.’

Each week during the CrossFit Open, No Excuses CrossFit will recognize a member it feels represents the Spirit of the Games. This week’s honor goes to ….

Laura Carrion made a big splash in her CrossFit Open debut. Not only did she do awesome in the workout by nearly completing all of the dumbbell snatches and burpees, but made her presence felt as a judge and spectator.

“(She) energized and helped push her team,” No Excuses CrossFit member Melissa England said.

When she wasn’t judging athletes, Laura was cheering on her fellow members in both English and Spanish to do their best.

“She is very motivating and encouraging to the team!,” No Excuses CrossFit member Leslie Brigman said.

Congrats Laura on being this week’s Spirit of the Open!
