Step Up For Those Who Stepped Up For Us
Each year the workout Chad1000x is completed by CrossFitters around the world in honour of Chad Wilkinson, a Navy Seal who committed suicide as a result of the trauma sustained during active duty.Here at Contessa we use this as an opportunity to support a local charity, Mates4Mates, who support veterans and their families through different programs aimed at helping them reconnect and recover after serving their country.
Regardless of age, fitness level or physical ability we show up and we step up to honour those that have served to keep us safe.
