Yep, you read that right dudes!
I sucked it up and went to Crossfit!
I obviously look like this now.
Just kidding, I don’t.
But, I am sore which ROCKS!
and not nearly as sore as I was last week,
Which rocks even harder!
In case you care, here was our “main set”:
Single arm overhead press (15 of those bad boys on each arm)
Toes to Bar (20)
Burpees (Hate. Them. 25)
3 rounds… yes… I said three rounds for time.
We also threw in this… just for giggles
Then I quietly did this…
Yep.
I died.
My coach even asked me if I was going to black out.
I wanted to laugh and tell him that I had run a marathon before
(which obviously means I can endure most things),
but thought it was best not to push my luck.
Don’t bite the hand that feeds you.
Am I right?
So… Yes! I went back to Crossfit!
I am pretty stoked about it, to be honest.
Yeah!
Livin’ life to it’s fullest is what it is all about people.
Injury or no injury, I can’t let the “what if’s” control me.
I will however, be careful at Crossfit… but I am not going to be a scared-y cat anymore!
This is so true, people.
Let’s bring it, shall we?!?!
YEAH!
Are you going to join Team Bring It with me?
What do you think of my new look?
Are you as excited that tomorrow is Friday, as I am? (I am pretty excited)
Happy Day, Ya’ll!
Rather Be Runnin' 
Yay! I was waiting for your post on what you thought of crossfit!!! Are you going to stick with it? Were you able to do all the toe-to-bars unbroken??? so exciting!

Yes, I am going to stick with it but not as many times per week as I would like. It is still a little more than I can afford but a friend and I go together on Wednesdays and drop ins are only $10. But, I love it regardless!

the cost is a big down fall… I’m glad you like it! I bet you’ll see a difference in you running too (in a positive way)

I was totally excited it was Friday! I wish we had a box close as I’d love to give it a go.

There are actually 3 in my town, but they are all $130 a month… and I can not afford that. Where I go, to Crossfit Grover Beach, is about a 20 minute drive… but it is totally worth it at $75 a month. Big difference.

Yes, yes, YES! OMG, I’m so jealous you did stuff with tires!!! My Wednesday WOD was EMOM: 3 pushups, 5 airsquats & hanging snatches (45#) to fill the minute until we reached 80. Yes, 80. Oof! I can’t wait to go tomorrow morning!! Oh, and, I got to run today. A mile but at least it was running. Recovering from injuries suck but I’ll take what I can get. 🙂 So glad you went back!!
