JULY 2026 || ATHLETE OF THE MONTH
ALEX BRUCE
We're excited to celebrate Alex Bruce as our July Member of the Month! Alex's positive attitude, determination, and willingness to embrace every challenge make her a valued part of the CFPC community.
Alex first discovered CrossFit in the fall of 2017 after finishing her competitive badminton career. She struggled to find a workout routine she genuinely enjoyed until her brother encouraged her to give CrossFit a try. Although she was hesitant at first, it only took a few weeks before she was hooked!
What Alex loves most about CrossFit is that exercise no longer feels like a chore. It has become something she looks forward to, and her dedication to showing up—even when progress doesn't always feel obvious—is truly inspiring.
Her favourite lift is the power clean, but her greatest achievement isn't tied to a single workout or PR. It's her commitment to herself. Alex says she's most proud that, even during times when she feels like she's not improving, she continues to show up. That perseverance is what builds lasting strength.
One of the things Alex loves most about CFPC is the incredible community. Moving to a new area can be daunting, but she found a welcoming group of people who quickly made the gym feel like home.
Her advice for anyone just starting CrossFit is simple but so important:
"Be patient and take it slow. Focus on learning the technique before loading up weight."
Alex, thank you for bringing your positivity and determination to CFPC. Your consistency and dedication inspire those around you every day, and we're so grateful to have you as part of our community.
And a special shout-out to Matt Reilly for being her amazing partner in life and at the gym! Congratulations on being our July Member of the Month!

JUNE 2025 II ATHLETE OF THE MONTH
ANDY TRACEY
If you've spent any time at CFPC, you've probably crossed paths with Andy Tracy. His energy is contagious, his sense of humour keeps everyone smiling, and his ability to make people feel welcome is a big part of what makes our community so special.
Andy first walked through our doors in 2015 after finding CrossFit through a Groupon deal with Celine (shout out to Celine!). What started as a simple opportunity to try something new quickly became a lifestyle built on consistency, hard work, and a relentless drive to improve.
As a proud father of three boys, Andy knows that fitness is about more than numbers on a leaderboard. It's about having the strength, health, and energy to keep up with his kids—and maybe even stay one step ahead of them on the field for a few more years.
Whether he's chasing a new PR, attacking a workout with a heavy barbell, or celebrating milestones like his first bar muscle-up last summer, Andy shows us what progress looks like: showing up, putting in the work, and trusting the process.
When asked what he loves most about CFPC, his answer was easy: the people. The friendships, support, and community are what keep him coming back day after day (with a special mention that the owners and coaches are "alright too" 😆
His advice for anyone starting their CrossFit journey?
"Show up. Work hard. Enjoy the process. Nothing comes free—you have to put in the work."
Andy reminds us that success isn't built overnight. It's earned through consistency, effort, and a willingness to keep showing up, even when it's hard.
Congratulations, Andy! Thank you for the positivity, leadership, and energy you bring to our gym every day. We're proud to have you as part of the CFPC family.

BERENICE MONDRAGON
Seven years ago, Berenice found CrossFit during a big life transition after moving to Canada. What started as a way to adapt quickly became a place to grow, be challenged, and genuinely have fun.
She shows up with consistency, patience, and purpose.
For Berenice, it’s not just about the lifts (though she loves her cleans and deadlifts). It’s about the feeling, the energy, and proving to herself — every single day — that she’s capable of more.
She respects the process, focuses on technique, and celebrates the small wins that add up over time. Those are the moments that remind her how far she’s come.
CFPC has become her happy place — and it shows. Her positive energy lifts everyone around her, and her presence makes our community stronger.
Her advice:
Be patient. Focus on the fundamentals. Show up. And have fun.
Berenice, we’re so pumped to have you as May Member of the Month!

APRIL 2026 || ATHLETE OF THE MONTH
ALICE TOKAREVA
Alice joined CFPC in October 2025, looking to add more fitness into her life while balancing a busy university schedule. After wanting to try CrossFit for a long time, she finally took the leap — and it quickly became so much more than just a workout.
Since starting, CrossFit has been a true game changer. She has grown stronger, fitter, and more confident, but even more than that, the gym has become a second home — a place where she can reset, feel calm, and leave the outside world behind.
Her favorite movement is the clean and jerk because of the focus, technique, and challenge it demands, and because it constantly reminds her there is always room to grow.
Alice is especially proud of achieving things she once never thought possible — from kipping pull-ups to rope climbs, and even taking on the 2026 CrossFit Open, where she pushed through nerves and surprised herself with what she could do.
What she loves most about CFPC is the people: the support, encouragement, and the way everyone celebrates each other’s progress, big and small.
Her advice for anyone starting: Do it scared. Some of the best growth happens when you try something that feels uncomfortable.
Alice, your consistency, courage, and energy inspire everyone around you. We are so proud to have you as part of CFPC and can’t wait to see what ‘s next for you!
Congratulations on Member of the Month April!
