A life that touched so many. Today the fitness community mourns the loss of beloved friend and elite athlete Lazar Đukić.
Known for his kindness, humor, and supportive nature, Lazar brought a breath of fresh air wherever he went. Beyond his athletic achievements, Lazar was caring, humorous and relentlessly supported those around him. His warm, supportive nature and quick wit left a lasting impression on everyone he met. He was 28 years old.
After years of passionately playing water polo in his home country Serbia, his debut at the 2021 CrossFit Games highlighted the start of a remarkable career. He shared a special bond with his brother Luka, introducing him to CrossFit and guiding him along the way.
To his girlfriend Anja, brother Luca, friends and family, we extend our deepest condolences. Lazar's legacy of approaching life with kindness and humor will always be remembered.
