For affiliate owner Dale King, opening PSKC CrossFit was never “about the money.” It was always “about the people.”
Since 2010, the Portsmouth, Ohio, affiliate has opened its doors to athletes of all ability levels and walks of life.
From adaptive athletes to expecting moms, to athletes recovering from addiction, and those looking to take control of their health, members of PSKC CrossFit haven’t just gained physical strength and stamina; they have gained the ability to be physically independent, found a safe haven and supportive community, and improved their quality of life mentally, physically, and socially.
“I have five years (of) sobriety, I have an amazing girlfriend, I have my own house, and if you asked me five years ago if I could ever have this, it would’ve been, ‘No. It’s impossible.’ And a large part of it is because of CrossFit, it is because of PSKC, it’s because of the community.” — Andrew Wright, PSKC CrossFit member
