  • Beauty Tip: Ole Henriksen

    Today is a rest day — from exercise. I’ve recently discovered some great skin care products that I wanted to share. Ole Henriksen from Sephora: Nature, science, beauty, and wellness. These four key elements are behind every Ole Henriksen product, making it a total lifestyle line and a true depiction of the man behind the…

  • Who is this Murph? Not sure I like him —

    I woke up really late this morning – past 9A if you can believe it. It’s a combo of that time of the month and a few late nights combined with a little off paleo eating that seems to be making me feel this way.  So I got up and got dressed and headed out…

  • Stop, Clean & Jerk

    It’s important to stop and appreciate all you have daily. This morning – I included a pic of my kids getting ready to leave for school this morning. They bring me so much joy and teach me so much every day. I can’t imagine my life without these 2 rascals and I am glad I…

  • Crossfit Impavidus: It’s your box too

    Another Crossfit Impavidus training session this morning and my shoulders were not too pleased! I was also the only one that came to the 6A class so I basically had a personal training session with Nick. That is good and bad. You can’t really slack when the trainer has only you to focus on —…

  • Strength WOD at CFI

    I decided to try an evening class at Crossfit Impavidus to switch things up last night. The only issue is that I have to get up the next morning and workout. It’s tough on the body. Last night with trainer Nate was a strength session. Nate is a good trainer – he goes over form…

  • Getting to know Kip.

    No falls this morning at Crossfit Impavidus – that was a bonus right there.  My friend Oy came to the 6A class & added an extra element of fun. And the same people are showing up to the class so it’s becoming more like home to me every day. I am really liking Coach Nick.…

  • Well hello, Fran!:Crossfit WOD

    Today I met Fran. For those familiar with Crossfit, Fran is a benchmark WOD. Long time Crossfitters all know their “fran” time. Fran: 21-15-9 65lb Thrusters Pull ups (green band assisted) Fran time: 6:35 Some caveats to my time: For some reason I had it in my head to power clean every rep in the…

  • Lordy, Lordy I am 40

    Yes its true. Today is my birthday — my fortieth birthday to be exact. When I was a kid 40 seemed so old — now that I am that age, doesn’t really add up. I don’t feel old and I have been told I don’t look old — so overall if this is what 40…

  • Call me Dominque Dawes – NOT!

    After yesterday’s parallettes, my arms and shoulders are sore! I thought about taking a rest day today, but I am seriously having so much fun at Crossfit Impavidus that I wanted to get up and go.  Had I know we were going to do even more shoulder/arm work — I may have thought twice. Warmup…

  • LA Fitness Workout

    Got up and headed to LA Fitness to workout with my boot camp pals. I am so happy I made plans to meet people there. It’s way too easy to just sleep in when you are off work and have no commitments for the day — Stac! had a rough night of sleeping,  but she…
