Icees for Time

Last night at dinner we discussed a few non-conventional “for time” workouts. Like “6 tacos for time” and “beer bongs for time”. So, I went to bed and dreamed we were doing “icees for time”. I’m not sure how we did but we all had headaches at the end. This is what Crossfit does [...]

Zone Block List

Here is a link to the Zone list a few girls and I were chatting about over bread bowls of clam chowder. LOL. No, I was the only one eating that. I think they all had salads. Good girls.

Here she is…her character was Ann Hathaway.
Happy Birthday, my sweetie!

Here is her crew. The cool thing is, a few of them have changed schools but thanks to Facebook, [...]

As many rounds in 20 minutes as you can of:

No one but you.

Every so often people approach me because they know I move my body. I enjoy it and have lost a few lbs to boot. They ask questions like “how can I get my butt…um…you know…higher?” or “what should I be eating”?
At first I was like an overflowing fount of information and would shower them with [...]
