June 2024 Athlete of the Month
Sangeeta Relan
Coach’s Thoughts: Sangeeta has been a consistent member since day one and is a regular at the best class (noon class).
Always looking to improve, Sangheeta is open and willing to any feedback we give her. She is also aware of her abilities and knows when it makes sense to scale or alter any movements.
A couple of things I can always count on when Sangheeta is in class.
1. She will be chatting it up with everyone while we are warming up.
2. She will ask what the masters weights are for the workout.
3. She will likely have a PR on an Olympic lift.
4. She will work hard and give every workout her best!
Congrats on being AOTM, your consistency and hardwork is an inspiration.
How long have you been doing CrossFit?
I started in 2013 when I moved to Andersonville in Chicago and I had to find a new gym.
Favorite Movement?
Double unders and lunges
What advice would you give to someone who is hesitant to start CrossFit?
There’s always a scale for your abilities. Don’t be a baby and just try it.
Favorite thing about CCF?
Noon class with my besties!
What do you do when you’re not at CCF (job, hobbies, other fitness, etc)?
I am exploring the world, engaging in local and national politics, playing pickleball, practicing animal advocacy, staying on top of changing data privacy laws and regulations in the U.S. and internationally, and Pilates.
What is your next big fitness goal?
Running in the Blue Ridge 208-mile relay race in September with my pals and beating Jeff Winkler in pickleball.
