Mother to James Hobart, CrossFit Games Affiliate Cup competitor and a member of CrossFit’s Level 1 Seminar Staff, Lucie says her perspective on aging has changed since she started CrossFit.
When James noticed his mom was complaining about more aches and pains as she got older, he knew it was time to help her make a positive change.
