Talon Smith

Owner

Talon founded CrossFit L3 after relocating to Fort Worth, Texas, where he had the opportunity to work alongside renowned trainer and athlete Shawna Gibson. Together, they designed a fitness experience that caters to the diverse needs of every athlete. Talon’s journey into CrossFit began in 2009 when he sought a way to improve his physical fitness for his role as a Navy Fleet Marine Force Corpsman, serving alongside Marine Reconnaissance. What started as a practical necessity soon turned into a life-changing passion. A 17-year Navy veteran, Talon was medically separated from the Navy after a distinguished career spanning both active duty and the reserves. He is a combat veteran of Operation Enduring Freedom and a former actor. Currently, Talon serves as a full-time emergency room nurse at John Peter Smith Hospital while pursuing his Doctorate of Nursing Practice in Psychiatric and Mental Health at Texas Christian University (TCU). Talon also has a notable career as a former USA-W National Coach, where he helped lead multiple athletes to Texas Olympic Weightlifting State Championships, National Championship qualifications, and CrossFit Quarterfinals. In addition to his work with Olympic weightlifting and CrossFit, Talon has played a key role in coaching Hyrox athletes, leading them to over 30 podium finishes and helping 11 teams and 3 athletes qualify for the Hyrox World Championships over the past 4 years. Talon is also an accomplished endurance athlete, having completed 5 Spartan Ultras, 1 – 100-mile ultra marathon in 23 hours and 54 minutes, and 1 – 50-mile ultra marathon. Talon’s athletic achievements include competing in the 2012 CrossFit Asia Regional and qualifying for the Hyrox World Championship four times. His passion lies in fitness and in helping individuals unlock their potential to achieve their goals, both in the gym and beyond. Talon is married to Jaime, a regular gym member, and together they have a 13-year-old daughter, Sienna. He also trains both of his parents, who are active members of the gym. Throughout his life, Talon is dedicated to serving others, empowering them to reach their full potential in all areas of life.
