  • Your Mind: your best friend or your worst enemy

    It’s a Monday Like day for most of us after the holiday — my kids were sluggish and slow to get up and out of the house on time this morning and it was chilly on my way to workout – which means I have to dig deeper to head out the door. Today’s workout…

  • CrossFit Workout with a Win

  • Handstands are my friend

    This image made me laugh so hard! Hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Anything with kitties makes me laugh. And I needed that this AM. While my throat feels better, it has moved up to my head, so I am all congested.  Oh the joys! Because of the congestion, the workout was…

  • Sometimes you scream like a girl…

    So don’t kill me but I headed to CrossFit last night. I love Nate, one of the trainers –he’s a great coach and it’s rare that I get to workout with him since he doesn’t do the morning classes, so any chance I get to sneak out and go to his evening class — I…

  • Wednesday Workout

    When I got to Crossfit Impavidus, I thought i was the only one for the workout. Thankfully Angela showed up so I didn’t have to face the WOD alone! It’s hard to have the coach just focused on you — trust me, it’s happened before and I don’t like it! Warmup 20 jumping jacks broad…
