  • Honoring Murph at CrossFit

    Yesterday was a great day. I headed to CrossFit Impavidus for their Memorial Day ‘Murph’ WOD. I did ‘Murph‘ last April and the weather was pleasant. Yesterday – not so pleasant. Hot, Humid, Hot — but this was a great WOD, and great way to honor a real hero.  We started the day with National…

  • CrossFit Impavidus Weekend Workout

    Memorial Day weekend is here! I headed to CrossFit Impavidus for their free weekend workout. I have said this before but I like the open community workouts because I get to see some of the people that go to CFI at other times during the week. I am a 6A girl, so I rarely get…

  • Strength Day Workout

    I am so mentally ready for this weekend. I have been under a lot of stress at work – not in a bad way, just in a way too much work to do way. I haven’t been sleeping well and I have noticed my eating has definitely been not what it should be — I…

  • Hitting my stride

    Today was one of those days when you just get the rhythm of a particular exercise and you kick ass doing it. Normally I’m not a super efficient runner nor a fast one — but I felt my stride when we did our 800m warm up this morning and it carried through the WOD as…

  • CrossFit WOD: Cindy

    I went a little blonde crazy yesterday. I have been too busy (aka lazy) to get my hair done lately but finally bit the bullet and took care of it yesterday evening.  While I was there, my stylist was telling me her brother in law is a war veteran and loves CrossFit. One thing she…

  • Double Unders & Sit Ups – Yeah, that’s the WOD

    By 1p yesterday, I was wiped out. The Fran workout yesterday may be a quick one – but it takes you down. There have been a few WODs recently that totally wiped me out and by mid day, all i wanted to do was crawl into bed. For today’s skill we worked on gymnastics and…

  • What would happen?

    5 Things Keeping You From Wellness I love this post – it’s so true. This is the message that I try to convey to anyone that asks me about my fitness journey and I often wish they would stop and ask what would happen if you stopped waiting for someday, and started today? They would…

  • Fran WOD

    It was a super busy weekend — Half the family went to the Joint Services Air Show and Hannah and I went to the Reston Arts Fair — and then we had laser tag parties, CrossFit, CrossFit Kids — laundry, cleaning, errands — no down time at all this weekend. I’m going to share some…

  • Venus with Biceps

    I saw a new book review that got my attention: Venus with Biceps: A Pictorial History of Muscular Women It definitely has not traditionally been the look of the ideal woman – strong, muscular woman. I do think the tides are turning or at least in the circles I hang out in …. CrossFit woman…
