If you didn’t hear me mention it in just about every Crossfit Games Open recap post thus far (13.1, 13.2, 13.3, 13.4), participating in a worldwide competition against the fittest athletes in the world has been absolutely one of my favorite experiences thus far in Crossfit. This Wednesday, as I have done for the past four Wednesdays […]
One thing I have learned since starting my own personal fitness journey is that no matter how much a person can have some sort of internal motivation, it is always nice to see others who are going through a similar journey or who can understand your health and fitness goals. This week’s spotlight is on […]

I know I started to do a weekly recap of my workouts, but there are some things that I just want to brag talk more about, so figured I can do what I want and will dedicate whole posts to one workout if I wanted. 😉 First off.. Cindy. In Crossfit, there are many workouts […]

I think I have had an epiphany in my relationship with running. When I first started running (March, 2011), I used the Couch to 5k program and even though I had to repeat multiple days of the program, I followed the plan and knew exactly what was expected of me each day. I was able to record […]
And it’s another Sweaty Sunday workout recap! This week I beat myself up. Physically and mentally, just drained! Since I started doing the Crossfit Open Workouts (Check out 13.1, 13.2, 13.3, and 13.4), my desire and drive to become a better athlete has seriously increased ten fold. I don’t just want to go to Crossfit. […]

One of the main points I am taking out of participating in the Crossfit Games Open is that my body has been able to do things I have never thought it could do, and it is making me want to push for things even more than ever. I all of a sudden have this severe […]
In a perfect world, we would get all of our essential vitamins and minerals, along with a proper balance of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. But sadly, we do not live in a perfect world, and even though real food is the desired source of all of the above, in order to push yourself a bit […]
Every week I showcase another amazing and talented lady lifter, and every week I find some new inspiration. This week’s spotlight is probably one of my most unique yet, featuring a YouTube sensation Nomad! 😉 Seriously, how often do you find girls traveling across the country with a goal to perform instructional kettlebell videos in all 50 […]

I don’t believe I have ever officially participated in a WIAW (What I Ate Wednesday) linkup, but I felt left out and wanted to share some of the amazing boring eats that I have been eating lately. I eat just about the same thing Monday – Friday, and other than some Greek Yogurt and wine, stick […]
I took my inspiration from Danielle at It’s a Harleyy Life and rather than posting about my workouts as they happen, I figure I’ll do one recap post a week for those interested in seeing how I chose to torture myself at Crossfit. I’ll still post about any workouts that stand out during the week if […]
