It is so important to constantly challenge ourselves physically. We are people wanting to influence each other and others we meet along the way.
This is where we can get workouts for the day, track your times, pr's, ask and reply to questions and comments.

This is also where we will share what events we are participating in and opening them up to the rest of the team to take part in.

Unusual

Sunday WOD...WHAT?!?!?!

Yup... Sunday WOD!

This was too good a WOD to pass up...At least that is what it looked like.

After the WOD, I think differently...Just not feeling right!!!
Maybe it was b/c I ate before the workout...Maybe it was the Granny Smith Burger from Portage (the Sticky Burger is better, BTW)...Who knows, but after the WOD, my stomach was awful...

Britt- 12:28 (125#)
Desi- 14:16
Val- 12:16 / 90# / 115#
tb- 12:35 / 155# / 225#

You get to hear from me instead of tb on Thursdays.... I know, be excited.
I will be honest today- I am having a hard time with this... ecstatic would be a word to use for the appreciation I have with what I do.  I love teaching & coaching.
It is different this week with being at a different level, but it is still working with kids.. and there is nothing better than that.  It does help you realize though, where you think you 'fit'.  I can be flexible, but I can't be alone for long and that is something that I am going to have to work a lot on this year... being alone and using that to my advantage.
When asking what I should do today: tb listed about 7 things I could do on my own... and all I thought was.. I just want to be in the classroom or team teaching so I could learn from a peer, or anything with some kind of social interaction and ability to learn from someone else.... Desi is good at occupying her time and being beyond productive on her own.  JB and Britt... excellent at it.  I need some help with this- not kidding!
Witter's statement yesterday: Val, What do you want?  (what do you mean?)  Why are you standing here and talking, are you that starved for adult interaction after 1 day? (yes!! YES I AM, so much so that I am standing by you and choosing you out of everyone else!)  Well, that is your first mistake.
(Thanks Witt.)  Don't worry I was there for 6 years, I know how you feel.
_ This is Going to be Great!
