Jen Callahan Patel

Fitness has always been a priority for Jen.  In 2016, she discovered CrossFit at a time when she wanted to kickstart her fitness journey as a new mom, ultimately joining the gym when her second daughter was 6 months old.  She started slow with two classes a week and like many members fell in love and built up from there.  In 2020, at the height of COVID, Jen and her co-owners purchased CFPC from the original owners who were moving back out East and were going to close the gym.  Due to the gym and the community becoming so important to her physical and mental health, Jen knew immediately she wanted to keep CFPC open.  The gym continues to be one of her favourite places and it is her motivation to provide a space in the community that brings them health and connection.  Jen is proud of the special community at CFPC and is not surprised when people comment on the positive energy at the gym. Jen is frequently seen at the gym throughout the week when it fits with her family’s busy schedule!
