Well, I'm ready! Just finished packing for the nine day seminar. What a job that was! It was like packing for two separate trips. Gear and clothes for three days of hiking and camping, rock climing and who knows what else. Plus four days of business casual clothes for the seminar part, and also a cocktail dress and the shoes and stuff that goes with that! But the most important part of being ready is my physical condition due to the regular workouts. I joined CrossFit to improve my physical fitness so that I could get the most out of this nine day adventure. And I'm ready now. I can feel the improvement in my strength, stamina, endurance, breathing, energy, mental outlook and overall happiness. I am content with myself now as I have never been before. Not that I intend to 'park' here for very long...now I have several new goals! No more weigh ins for me, now I'm watching my dress size drop and my arms and legs get stronger! So I have two new goals to accomplish by Christmas. Wear size 12 jeans, and start to volunteer at a local horse rescue. It may mean shoveling a littl sh_t, but that's fine. I just love being around the animals.
Well all this yapping about how great CrossFit is and I have to confess that I haven't done a WOD for a week. Life just got so busy this week with work, home, the condo, packing and you know...I can feel the glow diminishing! I won't be back to the gym till Monday 5-24, and I can't wait. I'm planning to do a short daily w/o next week...you know something like 20 situps, 15 pushups, and jump rope x 50. That should keep me from getting too soft next week! Yes, I actually invested in my own rope. It has weighted handles and it's really cool!
