CrossFit Girl: Cindy
I woke up this morning and that little guy I call the sleep monster was trying to talk me out of going — I tried to bargain out of going this AM –oh I will go on Friday instead of today but then the alarm went off and instinctively I got up and started to…

Filthy Fifty
Today was Oktoberfest at CrossFit Impavidus and we did a workout that had something for the kids and the adults. We did the Filthy Fifty and the kids got to do it too –but scaled for them. That’s one of the things I love about CrossFit — kids, teens, adults, seniors: it can be scaled…
