  • It’s not fun, which is fun

    It’s raining AGAIN. I woke up with a bad headache too and figured the best way to cure it was to head out for my workout and get the blood flowing. Sure enough, I’m done and have no headache.  Another benefit to exercise! Not sure what’s going on with me — I have not been…

  • CrossFit Workout – Gymnastics!

    Good Morning. Labor day is behind us — Fall is quickly approaching. We had the most intense rain storm last night. I down poured for hours and hours and of course I had issues sleeping. I was tossing and turning for what seemed like hours. I don’t know why I didn’t just get up but…

  • Labor Day Intro to CrossFit Girl Mary

    3 days of not working out and man do I feel it. I needed to work out bad this AM.  I did a bunch of stretching before I went to bed last night because I was so tight and stiff. Long drives are tough on the body, plus it has been super humid and we…

  • Lifelong Fitness is the point, Stupid.

    Holy Smokes, my hands hurt. We did Knees to Elbows today and man oh man — my calluses/blisters are burning. Many times its not the actual exercise that will kill you, it’s the residual effects you get from doing them.  And it’s funny because both my kids are working on the monkey bars at school…

  • All About the Run Workout

    Ahh Fall is in the air. Have I mentioned how much I love the cooler temperatures! Work is busy, home is busy, I am busy — it’s good all around. It’s funny how feelings can change so quickly. Leading up to school back in session, I was stressed out. I weathered the storm, and now…

  • It’s like being on a playground…

    What a great morning. The air is crisp and cool — feels like September is here already. I love Fall — so the sooner it comes the better! It was a small group this morning. Just 3 of us. With school back in session, many parents have to readjust their routine. Elementary school kids in…

  • Two For One

    I took my kids to the CrossFit Kids class at CrossFit Impavidus this evening. I am so beyond thrilled that both my kids are getting into it and talking about their squats and rounds. It warms my heart. While they were working out, Coach Marc was there preparing for his workout and asked if I…

  • Back to School means back to routines

    It’s back to school day! Hip Hip Hooray. A time for parents to rejoice — routine returns, kids are busy, money isn’t thrown out the window with weekly camp tuition.  I can actually predict what time I need to pick up the kids — instead of the wonky camp times.  Am I hiding my excitement…

  • Hurricane Irene and CrossFit Workout

    It’s kinda funny how the news does such a good job of creating panic when impending weather is on its way. I am sure that Hurricane Irene is gonna be scary and has the potential of creating some serious situations –but where we live, it will be some heavy rain. That’s it! Not enough danger…

  • Working on your relationships

    You know what I love? On my drive home I see older couples walking. Many of them are Asian or Indian — just walking, together. It’s early in the morning and they are walking. Some walk fast, some slow but they walk together. That’s seriously one of the secrets of staying youthful and together. Exercise…
