A New Hobby, A New Me

A very good friend of mine invited me to this "garage gym" of sorts for a one week free trial. She warned me that this gym was not your normal gym or workout. When we walked in, my first impression was, "People pay money for this?" Then I noticed someone wearing a shirt that had the Crossfit logo on the front, and on the back it said: "Your workout is our warm-up." I didn't really know what that meant--until I did the warm-up! I really enjoyed not only my first workout, but the people there as well. Everyone is very supportive and kind. I fell in love with Crossfit even though I puked my first day. (They say that if you don't puke your first day, you didn't try hard enough.)
In short, I believe Crossfitting will be a part of my life from now on. I love it. It's fun and addictive, athletic and competative. So maybe the title should be "A New Lifestyle, A New Me."

*Special note--this blog is for my benefit so I can keep up with the workouts, my progress, and PR's. (Personal Records) That doesn't mean that this blog isn't open for comments. Everyone loves comments!
