Achievements
My Fran time is not only scaled, but not even remotely impressive. Nor is my back squat PR. Or my deadlift. But you know what I am good at? A wall sit. At a previous gym, I held the gym-wide PR for a wall sit at just shy of 9 minutes.
Qualifications
CrossFit Level 1
CrossFit Kids
CrossFit L2
Coach
Melonee Hurt
I have been actively involved in CrossFit for 15 years. I fell in love with it when I visited a box in Atlanta and watched a gym full of fit athletes cheer on one athlete who was struggling to finish a workout the others had long finished. The cheers, the support and the lack of judgement made me realize this was a sport I wanted to be involved in. I quickly got my L1 certification, followed by the CrossFit Kids cert and then an L2, which I have since renewed.
I have always been active, playing soccer and doing cheer through high school, then engaging in road cycling, mountain biking and sprint triathlons into my adult life. I have several fitness certifications including STAGES Cycling and Johnny G Spin, Kardio Kombat, ACE Fitness and ECA Fitness Alliance.
While many of my CrossFit PRs are from my past, I still enjoy showing up, engaging and giving it my best, which is what I try to bring out in every athlete I coach.
