Its Official

April 9, 2013

The results are in... CrossFit Wachusett will be competing at the North East Regional!! I am so so so proud to be a part of such an amazing supportive community.

We picked each other up when we were down. We screamed in each others faces when needed. We celebrated accomplishments, hugged and encouraged when goals weren't quite reached. We bled together, sweat together and shed tears together. We laughed together, smiled together and gave more high fives than imaginable. Told eachother "you can do it," "keep going" and my personal favorite "moooooooooooove" over and over. We each laid it on the line every damn time.

The new athletes showed so much bravery and passion that it was such an inspiration to me. It pushed me to work harder and reach as far as my body would take me... often telling my mind to shut the eff up! The energy, the spirit and the discipline that everyone put out was indescribable.

M, K, Hubs, AM our coaches...  they know who needs what kind of push and exactly how to do it. The remarkable coaches are no doubt what makes CFW step up our game and "show up" to each Open WOD with the mindset that no matter what it is, we can in fact do it.

The CFW family... holy smokes. What can I say. I knew the Open was fun last year, but this year the emotion that surrounded each of us while we completed WOD's was amazing. Everyone who invested their time on Saturday or any other day that WODs were taking place understands that feeling I am talking about. I am so thankful to all of you! It was wonderful to see all the PR's and watch the self doubt fly out the window... I loved every second of it. Even panting on the ground after every workout.  

We did it. We ALL did it!

Thank you...

The 7's

September 15, 2012 Ahhhh, Saturdays. I love Saturday mornings at the gym. I usually get a little more sleep than normal, I get to have a little coffee and "awake" time before heading over and since I dont have a time constraint (most of the time) so its a totally different feeling than 5:30am. On Thursday night M had posted a "challenge" on the board. He, K and another CFWer had completed it and when I was looking at it on the board he posed the challenge to me as well. Told him that I would go for it on Saturday... so today was the day! I woke up thinking about "The 7's" and I knew that I was not going to back away from this challenge. For some reason, I was nervous about this one. I think I was just letting it get the best of me. I knew after talking to K and M that it was pretty deceiving the way it is written on the board. I mean you look at it and think, well, that cant be THAT bad. Than you quickly remember that when a CrossFit workout doesnt...

Take That Burpees...

August 30, 2011 I was exhausted last night when I got home from work around 7:45. I don’t even think exhausted is the word… my eyelids were heavy and I just wanted to curl up in a ball and sleep. I have nasty fall allergies and I am thinking that the storm may have jumpstarted them with all the trees flying. I was in bed at 9:00 and slept pretty well… Funny thing was, I woke up thinking about CrossFit and what the WOD would be this morning. I was thinking (at 5am) that we haven’t done burpees in a while, maybe I was dreaming about them. I went downstairs and decided to hop on the website real quick to see what was in store… hmmm what do you know… BURPEES! M and K must have been in my head last night! Off to CFW I went, T was there burpee-ing (is that a word) away when I pulled up. I got right into the warmup. Funny how a 200m run feels like nothing now. My feet feel light and my breathing is much more controlled. The 9 fundamentals are coming along every week with my form improving...

January 18, 2017 Tonight after coming home from daycare and watching "a snowman," Mr Z actually said "no" to watching Mickey Mouse Clubhouse... which is a miracle in itself. It was too early for bed time and it was bath night, so I brought him up early to hop in the tub with his other favorites, Nemo and Dory. After we ran around and chased each other all over my second floor while the tub filled up, he took a long (and bubble filled) tub. Its really one of my favorite times of the day. I take him out of the bath, we giggle while I kiss his little feets and tell them they are "my feet." He is all warm and snuggly and smells like Johnson Bubble Stuff... his eyelashes are still a little damp and hes sleepy in his eyes after a fun energy filled day. We lay together in his bed (the twin bed in his room), he makes sure he is positioned just right in the bed with his head on his pillow as tight to my side as he can be... legs crossed (always) and we read boo...
