OUTAthletics - Thursday, June 6th, 2024
OUTAthletics
Since 2019 we have hosted the Stonewall workout for OUTAthletics, originally OUTWOD. Even during the periods of lockdown we did the Stonewall workout virtually with them from our homes.
For those who don’t know CrossFit Indestri was originally founded by Scott Thornton in 2010. Scott was an NHL hockey player for 18 years, when he retired and moved to Collingwood, he missed the locker room feel. The camaraderie, and judgement free zone that he experienced in his years in the NHL. CrossFit Indestri was founded with the goal to create a space to give him that feeling back.
It’s something that Steph, Stouty and I feel in love with as members and have always tried to continue to maintain since we took over the ownership of the facility in 2015. A space free of judgement and full of support.
OUTAthletics formerly OUTWOD, is an event that support the OUT Foundation. OUTAthletics is the world's largest initiative for bringing together LGBTQ+ athletes and allies to sweat for a cause in a safe, inclusive fitness environment. Through different areas of the Out Foundation, OUTAthetics is able to provide support to athletes in the LGBTQ+ community through scholarships with OUTAthlete, they provide education to fitness facility on helping to create diverse and inclusive facilities, and through the OUTHealth program supports their mission in removing the barriers that block the LGBTQ+ community from living as their true, authentic selves, they provide health services to the LGBTQ+ community through various initiatives. OUTHealth is designed for all members of the LGBTQ+ community.
The Founder of the OUTFoundation and OUTAthletics Will Lanier, is an incredible man and a friend to CrossFit Indestri. We met in August of 2019 at the CrossFit Games after holding our first OUTWOD event in June 2019. Will is super supportive and super passionate about making Fitness inclusive.
On the last Saturday in June, (June 29th) we will be holding an OUTAthletics workout to support the OUT Foundation and ask that all of you join our team.

Sexuality, Ethnicity, Gender, Religion, Physical Impairment, Level of Fitness. We’re in no way blind to all of the differences in our community, but we are free of judgement from them. After all, together our sweat all glistens just the same.
