17. Camille Leblanc-Bazinet – CrossFit
This 5’2″ CrossFit athlete was born in Quebec, Canada. In her childhood, Bazinet was a competitive gymnast for roughly 14 years until she unfortunately tore her hip. Though that did not stop her from conquering the world of sports – she continued on to play volleyball, soccer, rugby, skiing and she even ran half marathons. Her versatility as an athlete is probably the reason as to why she is such an amazing CrossFit athlete. In 2014, she became the CrossFit Games Champion at the World Finals and is easily regarded as one of the best in the sport. Interestingly enough, her career in CrossFit reportedly started when a man at a party told her she was not in shape. Ha! I’d love to see that man’s reaction now!
