  • The Finish Line

    RARE 5 Mile Trail Run – START from Adam Eidson on Vimeo.

  • Success any way you look at it today!

    I think you will start to notice a theme in my posts this summer — I am not particularly at my best working in this heat and humidity. I just am not working at my peak level – and my sinus infection seems to be clearing out – which is not necessarily the greatest experience……

  • Results are in

    68th out of 90 racers.  I’m pretty happy with my standing – first trail race, heat, humidity, bee stings, asthma sinus infection — and still finished proudly. I would have been proud to just finish to be honest! http://www.rarecrossfit.com/fitness/the-rare-crossfit-5-mile-trail-run.html

  • RareCrossfit 5 Mile Race

    I am still fighting off this cold and combine that with how sore my body is from yesterday’s race = skipped my workout this AM.  I was planning on going as usual but when the alarm went off, I moved a little bit and realized that sleep was what I needed. I am launching a…

  • Crossfit Trail Race – July 18

    Here are my pals Cheryl and Lidia as we gear up for the xfit trail run that we did today. The info about the race said it was a 5 miler but those with garmins said it was more like 5.7 miles. I could tell while I was running it that it was more than…

  • Lunges rip me to the core…

    Today’s workout camp was not one of my best performances – The workout was just too hard – the combo of the heat and weights I lifted — let’s just say it was not good. Something about doing lunges just totally gets to my core — and almost brings me to tears. It mentally wears…

  • A Post to live by: Why I keep trying?

    Why I keep trying? — Roni’s Weigh. by roni I recently received a depressing email from an online friend. She amazingly ran her first 5k, started weight training and feels absolutely wonderful! However–and I’m thinking a lot of us can relate to this–She saw a picture of herself that set her back. She went on…

  • Starting it off right…

    Group training day – small group- 2 rounds of weight training and then a quick 2 station workout to end it.  I am sore from earlier this week boot camps which makes group that much harder — it’s a good sore but it’s sore nonetheless! warmup 200m run core x2 stability ball crunches stability ball…

  • It’s hot and humid!

    Let’s just say that today’s workout was not one of my favorites in that it was freakin’ hard. I think it seriously was one of the most challenging ones I have done in a very long time. Warmup side shuffle push-ups checkpoints skip jumps Core x2 partner ball toss 14lb dynamax ball hold and freeze…
