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.

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 […]

It is almost for four-week-i-versary at Crossfit! Not counting my Groupon classes, it will be four weeks tomorrow that I have endured this madness! I cannot believe how fast it has gone, and how much more I still have to grow! So many more benchmark WODs to attempt and so many more “first-time” movements to […]

After my super optimistic workout on Monday, I had another humbling Crossfit class. I think that’s just how it is. After the many great comments on my last post from some current Crossfiters, such as Claire who said, “It doesn’t get easier, you just get used to it”, I really need to stop thinking any […]
