Crossfit

Well after months of everyone telling me to try it and a whole new motivation for fitness, I finally did it...I joined a Crossfit gym. I have to admit that I was little hesitant since the cost of a membership is more than I have ever paid and to top it off I had to hire a nanny to watch Trevor so I can go to my class. All is well and it is working out better than I expected and I (on my second week) absolutely love it. I know it is sadistic to love the "I am so sore" feeling everyday, but I love knowing that I am actually pushing myself (with a little help from my gym mates) to feel that way...I earned it so to speak.

Anyway, I joined Ahwatukee crossfit and what I love most about it is it's "women only". After todays workout I am glad that there are no males in the facility because my ass was in my partners face and I was sweating so much I could literally wring out my shirt. The women are super supportive and I am excited to see how the program is going to change my body and my motivation. I needed a serious kick in the pants after the last four years of just trying and not doing.

I am still swimming on my team three nights a week and have no plans to quit. I also plan on starting running again since the weather is supposed to be dropping to 70s-80s in the next couple days (I'll believe it when I see it). I am just so excited about it all and I am hoping that I will be ready for the mud run 5k my husband signed us up for in one month...not sure how its going to go.
