CrossFit and Community
We met Kelly again today at CrossFit. She is one of those mean ladies that are considered benchmarks. I woke up with a sore throat and tired and should have listened to my body more but I love the challenge of doing these benchmarks — so I went. It was tougher than I expected. I…

Summer Workout and the livin is easy
I had such a good day yesterday starting with that great WOD where I kicked butt! My abs are sore and I have a lower back sore from all those sit ups but those I can live with! Yesterday was Summer Solstice, the longest day of the year and the first day of Summer. Hard…

Agility Workout at CrossFit
I feel good today. I am finally recovered from the hard workouts last week and the falling off the wagon weekend — and last week I went to see my doctor and he took some blood. He called and said that my bloodwork was great and my cholesterol was ‘excellent’. That is Paleo and CrossFit at work…

Go Heavy, or go Home
I feel better – finally and just have small remnants of my cold. It’s hard to believe summer is here already. Time goes by so fast. Seeing my niece this weekend really brought that home. Scotty’s illness really brought home to me how important family is. There are no other people in the world who…

Meeting Isabel
I was pretty wiped out after my long drive back from NJ yesterday. 4 hours non-stop but no traffic so that was good. There are times when I really miss the east. It’s like I just fit in there — it’s my home. I had pizza and Italian food too. It was so nice…
