Member Highlight - Aidan F.!

Aidan Finegan!

We love any opportunity to celebrate our athletes, and for our October Spooky Season AOM we are celebrating Aidan!

Aidan has been a member of the CFCH community since September of 2022 (YAY 1 year Gymversary!), and has been committed to working hard and improving ever since! Peep her handstand walking coming in strong! 

We asked Aidan a few questions about herself, and here is what she had to say: 

1) How long have you been doing CF? 

"I have been doing CF for a little over a year now, CFCH was the first crossfit gym I have been a part of. 

One of my best friends convinced me to try it a few times while we were in college and it stuck once I joined Chapel Hill."

2) What has been a fitness challenge you've had to overcome? 

"I have been pretty lucky in my fitness journey but I did have to overcome some nerve impingement damage in my back that caused me to stop all lifting and athletics for a semester in college, it took a lot of treatment, physical therapy, training to get back to the level of fitness I had once been at."

3) What is a fitness goal you are currently working on?

"I am working to step out of my comfort zone and work on the things I am not good at like handstand walking, double unders, and snatches."

4) What is your favorite exercise/workout to see on the board for the day? 

"My favorite exercise to see in a workout is either rope climbs or power cleans."

5) Tell us a fun fact about you! 

"My favorite hobby is cooking, if I could choose a different career than what I am working towards now I would want to be a private chef!"

Thanks to Aidan for being a wonderful part of the CFCH community, and we look forward to seeing her grow in her CrossFit and fitness journey!
