CrossFit 508

Another amazing Ditano Day!!! 💙💙 We had great time working out together, honoring Dawn's legacy and welcoming so many new (and old) faces into the mix. Seeing our community come together like this is exactly what makes days like this unforgettable.

Thank you to everyone who showed up with your smiles, sweat and stories -- we know she would have loved it. 👊

Here's to continuing her legacy, one rep at a time.

🌟🌟 Today’s a good day to share my story about why I started CrossFit 508.

Growing up, fitness was foreign to me; my family actually mocked exercise. I never really worked out until my late 30s and had never even heard of CrossFit until my early 40s.

I was personal training within the “normal” gym industry and saw how their business model thrived on people’s failures to commit to fitness. After proposing a CrossFit program and getting fired instead, I took a leap of faith and launched CrossFit 508 in a park with just some dumbbells.

My best friend, Dawn Ditano, and I laid the foundation for this gym before cancer took her from us, and now I strive to keep her memory alive.

Life has thrown challenges my way, but I’ve learned that age is just a number. At CrossFit 508, we are not just building strength; we are creating a community that inspires resilience and celebrates every small victory along the way.
