I'm a crossfitter

WOD: 3 mile intervals on elliptical
             Free weights- pumpin' iron yo!

It is a stretch to even call the above workout a "wod"- it's more like a desperate plea to burn some calories while at a hotel gym.

The conference I'm attending has been very informative. It's an overwhelming amount of information that I need to digest in a short amount of time. BUT, one thing that I keep talking about is the food here. Ahhhh-mazing. The breakfast buffet has a huge array of fresh fruit. It's totally worth waking up early. Lunch yesterday was also great.  I had a spinach, walnut and cranberry salad topped with prime rib and shrimp! Here's the cheat: Brie and smoked Gouda cheese....YUMMY! Dinner was also great, I had a fillet mignon and lobster tail from Ruth's Chris Steakhouse. I'm spoiled. To love my job, be in California and great food!

On my 6 hour plane ride here're I was thinking about my crossfit journey. It's now been four years. It started out as a birthday present for Nick. We we're only going to do it for three months. It was just so expensive and there was no way we could afford to this long term! Sounds familiar? When I started meeting other members, I also introduced myself. "Hi, I'm Jenn, and I'm a runner. This is new and exciting but my passion is running." Blah blah blah. Running had been my identity. Running was my life, my mental break, my time with God and my FREE exercise.

Fast forward to today. Crossift is my family. Crossfit is my mental break. It is not my time with God or my free exercise. This remains to be my running I time. What I found was it was safe to say I was a runner. It wasn't until I pushed the boundaries and challenged myself that I found that crossfit was fulfilling my needs, both mentally and physically.

Hi, I'm Jenn and I'm a crossfiter who just so happens to have killer endurance for marathon running :)
