I DID A CARTWHEEL —-
Today was a big day — I DID A CARTWHEEL!! You have no idea how big that is for me — it has been something that has bothered me since I was a kid. I could never do a friggin cartwheel — very very discouraging but not anymore. It’s a milestone for me. The little…

Hooked on a feeling…
Starting the morning with a workout is a great feeling — seriously. It may be hard to get up out of bed but I rarely meet anyone who doesn’t feel better after wards. It’s even great when you have to do a Tabata! workout — I am sore and wiped out, but I feel good.…

Attempting to Conquer the Cartwheel
Happy St. Patty’s Day to all my Irish Friends! I gotta say – I have been feeling so great about life. I feel empowered and in charge & I don’t know what is so different in me that it’s causing me to feel this way, but I feel great energy around me. Good things are…

Gymnastics Fun at CrossFit Impavidus
When people ask me why I get up so early to workout — it’s because of days like today at CrossFit. We did a bunch of gymnastics. There is something about learning how to do some of the things I struggled with as a kid that makes me giddy. Where else can you go as…
