Bailey’s love for CrossFit is a testimony of faith, healing, and strength. At 13, she battled anorexia, but found restoration through the sport. Training taught her to see her body as a gift from God—strong, capable, and worthy. She moves to glorify Him, not punish herself. At 16, she embraces daily challenges, a supportive community, and growth in every way, knowing her worth comes not from numbers, but from her identity as a child of God.
Bailey is inspired by her family, friends, and CrossFit community, whose support and prayers fuel her drive. Her strong faith in God grounds her, reminding her to train with gratitude and purpose. Surrounded by people who push her to grow, she strives to work hard, stay humble, and inspire others. Dream On 3 has been a very important part of her journey.
One of the proudest moments in Bailey’s athletic journey was seeing her embrace CrossFit with confidence and joy after overcoming anorexia at 13. She now trains to honor the body God gave her, fueled by faith, hard work, and the support of her family, friends, and CrossFit community. Watching her replace fear with strength and self‑doubt with determination has been a powerful reminder that perseverance and God’s grace can turn even the hardest battles into victories.
