It’s a great day weather wise here in Northern Virginia but of course, the closer we get to the Fourth of July – the hotter it’s going to get. Isn’t that the way it always goes?

So I did it — I am signed up to get my CrossFit certification next month. I have been considering it for some time but it’s really expensive and if you aren’t going to pursue it seriously, it could be considered a luxury expense.  I realized how much I really love CrossFit and how much I would love to be able to run some CF Kids classes in the future. Now I certainly don’t expect to be a trainer just because I sat through a 2 day course and took an exam. Good trainers and coaches need to be mentored. I know what I like in coaches which can certainly help — but I hope to start shadowing some of the coaches at CrossFit Impavidus afterwards and see where it takes me. Here’s to trying new things — I will keep you posted on how it goes.

Coach Laurie was at the helm again today while some of the coaches are out on vacation for the Fourth.
