Gym-ing it up and a Crossfit Update!

I, along with many Americans, have a gym membership that I rarely use.

Last year, I used to go to the gym every morning before work…

this year… not so much.

I would rather run outside, take a shower, and get ready for work in the comfort of my own home with these two dorks…

Meet Max and Diesel, my cats.

Yes, I am aware that Diesel is the size of a small dog. He is sensitive about his weight, so be nice to him.

They assist me with my morning routine and keep me from getting bored by yelling talking to me all the time.

Although I rarely go to the gym,

sometimes, my body wakes me up at 4:30 in the morning and I can’t fall back asleep.

So I usually go to the gym on these occasions.

Yesterday was one of those days.

I headed to the gym about 5:15…

yeah, it was WAY too early.

Of course I hopped on the treadmill, because I had some speed work to do.

I am still preparing for See Jane Run in Alameda in June.

Definitely looking forward to the chocolate and champagne!

I haven’t had either for over a month!

I brought my Active Accessories pouch (of course!)

After a super fun and sweaty 6 mile threshold run,

BOOM!

I cooled down with some core work and foam rolling… my favorite.

and then decided to take a picture of myself in the bathroom.

Classy.

After reading all of your positive, motivating comments about crossfit (Thank you for that. You guys are seriously awesome) on Tuesday’s blog post (Contemplating Crossfit), I have decided to give it a shot.

I am going tomorrow evening to Crossfit Grover Beach to check out their box.

I am really looking forward to it!

I think it is going to be an amazing addition to my workout schedule.

And I want to get ripped!

Yeah! Like that!

I will let you know how it goes on Saturday’s blog post, if I am actually able to lift my arms that high…

*fingers crossed*

It’s almost Friday everyone… keep your head up.
