Brittany Thompson
Biography
My name is Brittany and I’m originally from the Bronx, New York. Growing up, I played Basketball, Field hockey, Golf, and Track and Field in high school and Division 1 Field Hockey at Cornell University.
Post college, like most former collegiate athletes, I was in the search of a fitness outlet that allowed me to continue to push myself, test my abilities, and stay competitive. I tried running, cycling, yoga, and Spartan races but none of them satisfied my fitness goals. In 2017, I found CrossFit and was immediately hooked.
Through CrossFit, I found my love for Olympic weightlifting. I value the commitment to detail, technique, and consistency that weightlifting requires. There is always something to improve on or a competitive goal to work towards.
When I’m not in the gym you can find me running, checking out a new restaurant in the area, hiking, and hanging out with family and friends.
