Eric Smith, a 4‑time Masters Games Athlete (50–54) and 2022 podium finisher, joins Warren after taking first place at the Legends Championship In‑Person Semifinals this past April in Del Mar, CA, officially punching his ticket to the 2026 Games.
Eric shares his experience competing at Legends, the relief of skipping the Online Semifinals, and reflections on his long CrossFit history dating back to his younger days. He also opens up about turning 55, adapting to lowered weights and movements in the Open and Quarterfinals, and how mindset and a care-free appoach to CrossFit shapes his training today.
A grounded, insightful conversation about experience, evolution, and the fire that keeps Masters athletes pushing forward.
