Grandpa Tom Robertson on CrossFit: I Love It

March 15, 2016

“CrossFit is and can be for anyone!”
—Coach Chris

As he approached his 70th birthday, Tom Robertson came to a hard realization: he could no longer move around like he used to. He knew if he wanted to be around for his grandchildren, it was time to make a change, so he turned to CrossFit. Here’s his story.

“You can make all kinds of excuses about why something is or isn’t good for you: I’m too fat, I’m too old, I’m too short, I’m too tall, I’m too whatever. The reality is I am who I am, and it’s what I do with who I am, what I’ve got, that makes the difference.” —Grandpa Tom, CrossFit Santa Cruz
