I’m two months in to CrossFit. I’m two workouts in for the 2014 CrossFit Open. Well actually, I’m two announcements in to the Open and only one workout in. But right now, I feel at my CrossFit lowest. It makes me want to use the C word. Yes, that hideous, nasty, debilitating C word. Proceed with caution – the language ahead may make you cringe.

Just Like Christmas Eve(ill)
You read that as Christmas Evil, right? Because that’s what Thursday, February 27 at 8:00 PM ET brought – a sack full of evil toys by the names of double unders and snatches. Take that red suit off Dave Castro, it doesn’t work for you. [Read more…]
Why The *!%# Did I Sign Up For The Open?
What would possess someone brand new to CrossFit to sign up for the Open? Why would someone that hasn’t even attempted half the moves that Dave Castro will potentially require sign up for the Open? Hmm… good question. [Read more…]
Records; Personal
The great philosopher Cam’ron once asked “What means the world to you?”. Ask the seven billion people on this earth that question and you’ll likely get seven billion different answers.

Because they do. [Read more…]
