Climbing style Condie has attributed her climbing style, which relies more on muscles than technique, to training mostly at a small Minneapolis gym with only a 45-degree spray wall, and the difficulty she has twisting her body because of her fused spine. During the pandemic, Condie found creative ways to continue her training at home, creating "off-the-wall" workouts with limited equipment and hanging from door frames.

Personal life and education

Condie underwent vertebrate surgery at age 13 to correct spinal deformation. Having been bullied throughout most of her childhood, Condie trained alone through college.

In 2021, Condie was named to Forbes' "30 Under 30" list in the Sports category and Sports Illustrated's "Fittest 50 Athletes in Sports" for that year.
