I know a lot of my followers are runners, but don’t get too excited about the title of this post. The first workout in the Crossfit Games Open 2013 was cleverly titled 13.1 (I think because of the year 2013, first workout of the games), and did not translate into a half marathon by any means. 😉
I recently entered a giveaway on one my favorite blogs, The Ascent Blog, for a Crossfit WOD tank by LatitudeGearRX. Around the same time that I found the giveaway, I was contacted by Lindsay, who founded the company, asking if I would be interested in reviewing on of their tanks. Of course, I said yes!
Some of the ladies I choose for my lifting spotlight have approached me, asking to be next. Other ladies, I have reached out to and they have graciously accepted the invitation to be featured on my blog. This week’s spotlight is a little different. I found Dana on the New Rules of Lifting Facebook forum […]

I have a bit of an issue that has become more of a problem since I ran the Turkey Trot 10k. I think I have a runner’s bug. Not so much a runner’s bug, but a racing bug. I will tell you all day long that I do not like running. I get frustrated, and it […]
Looks like a lot of ladies are still going strong for the #nogirlypushups challenge!

I want to first thank everyone that either donated to my Fight for Air Climb campaign, or those who re-tweeted my plea to raise money for this event! I was able to raise $215 to help support the American Lung Association! I was shocked at how quickly I met my goal just by soliciting some […]

So remember on Monday when I posted about finally being back from my short hiatus from Crossfit due to my injury? On Tuesday, I could not get out of bed. It was the most horrible, miserable feeling to have felt so optimistic and positive, and then to be right back to where I started. I cried. I whined. […]
While I have only been doing Crossfit for a few months, I have forever been inspired by those ladies that have done it for quite some time. One of the first bloggers I ever followed was Fabulous in Fayetteville, as this chick wears Lulu, does Crossfit, eats only recipes from PaleOMG and Well Fed, does […]
I had my first AbMat experience at a global gym about a year ago. I had signed up to work with a personal trainer and he had me doing a Crossfit-style workout that consisted of push-ups, squats, and sit-ups. When the trainer set the mat on the floor, I had no idea how to use […]

I have been on a self-induced rest period for the past six days. I know that taking time off is not a bad thing, especially if you have something limited you from working out, such as me hurting my back. However, can I just tell you the past six days have felt like an eternity […]
