I took my inspiration from Danielle at It’s a Harleyy Life and rather than posting about my workouts as they happen, I figure I’ll do one recap post a week for those interested in seeing how I chose to torture myself at Crossfit. I’ll still post about any workouts that stand out during the week if […]

Waiting for the Crossfit Games Open workout announcements is half of the fun of this whole Open process. While I am not at all competitive, nor anywhere near the top of any list, there is still some anxiety that comes along with the announcements of the workouts and even more-so when it comes down to performing […]

I don’t know about you but it seems like the more callouses, skins, and bruises I get, the cooler I feel in my Crossfit world. I talked a couple weeks ago how having a skin tear is like one of the rites of passage in Crossfit, and while I have some minor ones, none have ever bled […]

I know a lot of my followers are runners, but don’t get too excited about the title of this post. The first workout in the Crossfit Games Open 2013 was cleverly titled 13.1 (I think because of the year 2013, first workout of the games), and did not translate into a half marathon by any means. 😉

So remember on Monday when I posted about finally being back from my short hiatus from Crossfit due to my injury? On Tuesday, I could not get out of bed. It was the most horrible, miserable feeling to have felt so optimistic and positive, and then to be right back to where I started. I cried. I whined. […]

I have been on a self-induced rest period for the past six days. I know that taking time off is not a bad thing, especially if you have something limited you from working out, such as me hurting my back. However, can I just tell you the past six days have felt like an eternity […]

From all of the runner blogs I follow, and many marathon journeys I have followed, it seems like a right of passage for runners is losing a toenail. Sounds gross, I know, but you runner folk know what I am talking about. Just as runners take pride in losing their toenails, I think the true initiation into Crossfit […]

I continue to say this both in my blog and in my real life world, but Crossfit changes a person more than just at the physical level. There are huge mental barriers to break through, and it could cause an emotional rollercoaster of exhilaration, frustration, nervousness, ambition, and confidence. There is so much more that […]

Inspired by my last post in rambling off my Crossfit workouts without realizing that half of the readers may not even know what is a WOD, I opted to put together a very basic list of what some Crossfit abbreviations and terms are so you can reference anytime you read my posts. 😉 What is […]

I have decided to commit to Crossfit a minimum 4x a week (Two Crossfit WOD classes, two Crossfit Endurance classes, with a likely 5th day reserved for strict Olympic lifting sessions). The tentative schedule, which has been working for the past couple weeks is: I was quite pleased to find out that my box offers not only typical […]
