Live Fit and Sore

  • Work, Rest, Work, Rest

    Some days are definitely harder than others — day 3 of the challenge has come and gone and I was hungry yesterday and did indeed give in. I didn’t eat ‘bad’ food but it definitely had some additives. I do notice though that with no dairy or other crap, I feel good. NO heavy fog around me,…

  • Monday is another word for Workout

    I did pretty darn well yesterday during day 2 of the whole life challenge and really do feel better. No crap in = no crap out. I did the benchmark workout this morning for the challenge – man the worst part for me was the 800m run. The air is cold, my lungs hurt and…

  • Let’s talk about something — excuses!

    Let’s talk about something — excuses! Why do people have so many excuses about why they aren’t working on their fitness and health? I am creating a Whole Life Challenge at my CrossFit box and if athletes don’t want to do it –no big deal. No pressure –  you make changes when you are ready…

  • Wrists & Shoulders Fail me Now

    I thought all the ladies out there could use some yummy eye candy this morning –especially those in Northern VA who are ‘enjoying’ the rain. This cloudy day made it very tough for me to get up out of bed –  not going to lie. My old friend, the sleep monster, almost talked me right…

  • Death by Intervals

    I went and got my mammogram yesterday. It wasn’t bad at all — it’s amazing how they get whatever boob you have and squish it in between these plate like things. A few minutes of being uncomfortable is no biggie. I am telling you, after seeing what my husband had to go through first hand…

  • Monday, Monday

    It’s back to my routine. My husband has returned from his work/fun trip to Vegas. It’s been a long week without him and of course one of my kids gets sick. I took her to the Dr early Saturday morning –and skipped my normal workout and sure enough she has strep. We spent the day…

  • Call us Urban!

    I got the kids ready for school – drove them in the pouring rain came back and got ready to go to a 930A CrossFit class. It’s fun to mix it up but normally I’m at work so I can’t make a 930A class. Last night, I took Hannah and Nate to CrossFit Kids —…

  • Get to work!

    I did indeed head to CrossFit last night. Told the kids to grab their favorite gaming device and headed out.

  • Playing on the Rings

    I was thinking last night how sometimes I feel like an old lady  — I go to bed super early and sleep like a rock most nights. A bunch of us were laughing yesterday at how well we sleep — finish a hard workout, put in a full day at your 9-5, parent — you…

  • Happy Columbus Day, now get to it!

    Good Morning People! It is indeed Columbus Day and I am not off from my job. My husband and kids are still snug in their beds so it was quite the bummer to come home after my workout and not have hot coffee waiting for me. Life is about adjustments people! After Saturday’s brutal workout,…
