CrossFit Games 2020: Katrin Davidsdottir, Tia-Clair Toomey on staying hungry after ‘Fittest on Earth’ titles
- The two-time and three-time champions have no trouble staying motivated in striving for more titles
The last five “Fittest on Earth” titles belong to just two women, but neither will rest on their laurels when competing in the 2020 CrossFit Games finals this weekend.
Icelander Katrin Davidsdottir, champion in 2015 and 2016, and Australian Tia-Clair Toomey, champion in 2017-19, both draw their motivation from the sport and not the competition.
“The coolest thing about the sport is there’s always something to get better at,” said Davidsdottir. “You can be crowned ‘Fittest on Earth’ and you can come back and think, ‘All right, I’m going to get better at this, this and this.’
“That keeps us driving. I just want to keep filling in those buckets. And I still see so much potential and so much room for growth, whether it’s getting better at long distance running, sprinting, gymnastics or weight lifting. I don’t think we’ve hit our limit nearly yet.”
