  • Practice makes better…

    I’m not going to lie — getting back on the Paleo wagon has been tough since heading out on vacation. I didn’t go hog wild during my trip but certainly didn’t do my Paleo focused eating. Arizona is made for Mango margaritas, guacamole,  chips, salsa and ice cream.  At least in my excuse created mind.…

  • In Honor of ‘Arnie’ WOD

    I’m back from vacation. I firmly believe unplugging from your life and going on vacation is good for your soul.  If it’s a good place, it really can reignite and re inspire you — I needed it. Today’s workout was ‘ARNIE’ Los Angeles County Fire Fighter Specialist Arnaldo “Arnie” Quinones, 34, was killed in the line of…

  • Rainy Day Workout

    Vacation can’t come too soon for me — I am running on empty. Work is busy, home life is busy — I am thankful that I have CrossFit though. It really helps me with stress management and it’s a super fun way to start my day. I highly recommend it. And it’s been raining the…

  • Monday is Funday!

    Not sure what’s going on with me but I kept waking up last nite with achey joints — especially my wrists. Not sure what that is all about – when I woke up for good this AM, it didn’t seam to be an issue. Todays workout was in honor of — Narcotics Detective and Special…

    Tomorrow – I am doing my 2nd 5k of the spring at the Brambleton Ribbon Run 5K with Team Ashburn CrossFit Impavidus! It’s a great way to get out there, give back for a good cause, and feel like you are a part of something bigger. Try one — you will see what I mean!  Heck,…

  • Finding your ‘CrossFit’

    This weather is great and perfect for working out. Other than allergies, I love springtime in Virginia. I also love ‘springtime’ in Arizona –which is where i will be heading in a few short weeks for spring break. Heat, sun and time to recharge — Warmupx2 run around bldg 1x sampson stretch 10 pass thrus…

  • CrossFit WODs are never what they seem —

    What a storm we had last night — pouring rain hitting the side of the house. I like the sound of falling rain and all but this was a loud storm. You just have to appreciate mother nature! Today’s workout once again seems pretty minor but oh no — it was tough and right after doing Murph.…

  • Monday means Murph

    Good  Morning Monday. It was a tough weekend full of hard workouts and hours and hours of lawn work. There really is something to doing lawn maintenance each season so that it doesn’t all pile up — I spent over 3 hours raking and bagging leaves in my back yard and I am still not…

  • Tag You’re It!

    It was a great open workout at CrossFit Impavidus today. A few new people showed up, full of energy! I can’t tell you enough how much I love the community aspect of CrossFit. Fellow athletes all cheering each other on — wanting to see results! It really is the big difference between a ‘globo-gym’ and…
