From all of the runner blogs I follow, and many marathon journeys I have followed, it seems like a right of passage for runners is losing a toenail. Sounds gross, I know, but you runner folk know what I am talking about. Just as runners take pride in losing their toenails, I think the true initiation into Crossfit […]

I continue to say this both in my blog and in my real life world, but Crossfit changes a person more than just at the physical level. There are huge mental barriers to break through, and it could cause an emotional rollercoaster of exhilaration, frustration, nervousness, ambition, and confidence. There is so much more that […]

“Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?” “That depends a good deal on where you want to get to.” “I don’t much care where –” “Then it doesn’t matter which way you go.” ― Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland Today was the first time in a few weeks that I had […]
