  • 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…

  • CrossFit Games Workout

    Man, I’m sore. It was almost enough to keep me in bed this morning and skip my workout — but nope, I got up and headed to CrossFit Impavidus. It was a tough workout. So many times, I will look at what the WOD is when I first walk in to the box, and say…

  • Sometimes you scream like a girl…

    So don’t kill me but I headed to CrossFit last night. I love Nate, one of the trainers –he’s a great coach and it’s rare that I get to workout with him since he doesn’t do the morning classes, so any chance I get to sneak out and go to his evening class — I…

  • Happy Birthday to my Beautiful Daughter!

    Today is my beautiful Hannah Bea’s 9th birthday. It is hard to believe that it has been 9 years since I took that trip to Reston Hospital that forever changed my life. I became a Mom. What a wonderful journey it is — This morning’s workout was fun — I can’t begin to tell you…

  • Overhead Squats

    I had pizza this weekend — and once again, I find out how much it’s not worth it. I mean when I am eating it — i think, totally worth it. But the after effects, not so much. But for some reason, I don’t seem to remember that when the time comes to make the…
