W.O.D.


I have a new addiction. Not since I was in my late teens have I worked-out so hard. Yes, I've started doing Crossfit. (Click the Crossfit to learn). I have never been so pushed and driven to want to workout on a daily basis and inspired by how hard the people around me are pushing themselves. For example the W.O.D. (workout of the day) last night was:

THE CLEANSE

20  POWER CLEAN

20 HANG SQUAT CLEAN

***TIME***

RX:  80%

STRENGTH TRAINING:

PUSH PRESS

5 REP 75%

3+ REP  90%

SPLIT JERK

3 X 1 90+%

I watched in awe and was inspired as these women pushed their way through this workout. Never in my life did I think I would be doing power cleans, squats and dead lifts again (i forgot how much I loved it). Being a "newbie" this was not my workout and we probably only did about 1/2 of this and I can't move and I seriously hurt this morning and the crazy thing is I want more. In the gym there are no egos and no one looks good or pretty doing what they do, everyone is pushing one another and rooting for one another and no matter how long it takes you to get through your WOD, you freakin rock. 
Truly inspired. 

It's Friday and that means a weekend ahead full of skiing! Woo hoo! 

Sending out lots of weekend love and gratitude!

Meaning To....

I've been meaning to post pictures of the finished wall at the office for a while now but it seems like every time I remember I'm either not near a computer or something else gets in the way. Well ...here it is, we decided not to do different patio layouts on top, those are going in a different spot but we did put some large slabs on top so we could display our furniture. Now, on to the next 1,000 different projects I have in mind for around here... only that's going to have to wait till tomorrow, the lil one is not feeling well so my mama went and picked her up from school and I'm heading to the doc with her in a few hours to get her checked out. Don't think it's anything major just chest congestion , runny nose but no fever. Nothing a little rest and TLC wont fix! I love the fact that everything is finally starting to turn green. Green makes every thing look better! :)

Ski Team!

A few weeks ago Stella started training with the Eldora Ski Team every Saturday. Now Saturday's can't come soon enough. I get up at 6 and get Stella up at 6:30 and we are out the door by 7. Usually we get up to Eldora around 8:30 after making a stop to get mama coffee and Stella and donut or two! :) By 9am Stella is ripping up the slopes with her coach (Dave) and 5 other little girls her age. She is having such a blast it's hard to believe we didn't do this sooner. I never noticed these signs before and thought it was pretty cool the ski area was showing some love to the local ski programs. Stella proceed to then inform me that they've been there for quite some time. Oops! :) Stella and two of her little ski buddies! Stella ripping up the GS course! At the end of the day which is usually at 3 all the kids have to help tear down the course. Stella is doing such an awesome job that it makes me one proud mama. Much Love!!!
