I never posted anything about this since I didn’t have my own camera. As you can see from the video it was a hell of a lot of fun and so cool to meet up with other crazy Crossfit people.

Change

I saw this quote today…
“So often, we blame other people when, really, the problem is right down in here. I’m not happy. I don’t know what’s wrong. If I just had another job, I could be happy. If I just get married, I would be happy. Well if I just wasn’t married, I would be [...]

Clean & Jerk / L Sit

Some days are just made for me. I’m not super strong, but love to clean and jerk.

LOTR, anyone? …Ok, moving on.

ride – riding     cure – [...]

Feeling Good

I’m ready. Tomorrow is the Team Challenge at CFV and I’m ready to rock it! I have been careful with my diet but not nazi status. Gosh, I’m just so over the ultra restrictive plans. Most people have never trained for a figure show. They don’t know the mental stress it brings. I have to [...]

Post WOD Wisdom

Have been too busy to make an in depth post…
Here is a comment from a certain 13 year old in Crossfit Kids.
“I decided to focus on how I was doing the movement instead of beating the clock and it was easier!”
Wow! Good thinking, kiddo!
