The Community of Crossfit


During the last week, I rented my house out for SXSW. It just so happened that the two guys that rented it were crossfitters from Seattle! It is amazing how just being "crossfitters" makes a bond, opens a new line of communication that would not be there, and creates a family with strangers! What we are doing, is more than "just working out". It is creating bonds, families, and long time friends! I often forget that I am not just a member of Crossfit Kids, nor of Crossfit Central alone, but of a larger enormous family of Crossfit! I love it!!
Plus, no one else would appreciate zone foods being left in their fridge!

Crossfit Kids vs. The Moms




This morning the crossfit kids worked out with the Crystal and the ladies in the Lake Pointe Bootcamp. By request of the the kids, they did the same workout as their moms to kick off spring break. It was difficult, but I must say that the kids deserve a tenacity award for sticking with it and finishing!!
Morgan, Emilee, and Grace you ROCKED!!!!
Getting fit and having fun with your parents, now that is what it is all about!!!!

The FASTEST, The STRONGEST, The BEST!!!!!!


Everyday I think about how I can get faster, stronger, and better...

When I leave the gym, I have a little self reflection time and I think about what I should have done, could have done, or wish I had done...

I challenge myself by thinking that I could have gone heavier, I could have run a little bit faster, and I should have finished sooner.....


I see it in the kids and the adults alike, I think it happens to all of us or at least I hope so...

Even though it is not always easy, I hope every person challenges themselves, but knows that the race is within. It really doesn't matter what anyone else can do, it is all about pushing yourself to the edge of what is possible. It helps me to have others there so I know what is possible, to encourage me, and to push me, but when it comes down to it, I must challenge myself. Those questions should be welcomed and not discouraged. Somedays we are on top and sometimes not, but as long as we stay in the race, we are still improving!


If we all felt like a super hero in every workout, we would probably get bored and quit. So, thanks to all of those people in my classes that push me to be better, get faster, and do more! I am inspired daily and you are all super heros in my eyes!!!

And, here goes one more day of PUSHING!!!!

Effort

"Nothing great was ever achieved without great effort" Theodore Roosevelt

It is when your mind starts telling you that you should stop, that you should keep pushing to see results! If it isn't a little scary then you are probably not pushing yourself hard enough!
