Samantha "Sam" Briggs (born 14 March 1982) is an English CrossFit athlete best known for winning the CrossFit Games in 2013.[1][2] She has qualified for the CrossFit Games seven additional times: in 2010, 2011, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2019, and 2021. She finished four of her seven appearances in the top 5 overall.[2][3][4] Briggs lived and trained in Miami, USA for the 2015 CrossFit season, but now resides in her native England.
Before she found CrossFit in 2009, she competed in amateur-level duathlons, triathlons,[5] and football in the Northern Premiership League (as a centre midfielder or centre-back).[6] She worked as a firefighter with West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service. Briggs then took a sabbatical to concentrate on CrossFit fulltime. In February 2022, Briggs announced that she would retire from CrossFit after the 2022 season to return to firefighting in August.[7][8]
