Happy Easter Weekend! This post didn’t go exaxctly as I had planned, but in the end, I’m happy with the outcome (and it won’t be a long one either). During the Open (since I’m not officially registered), I’ve been doing the WODs on Friday night’s to not only stay out of the way, but also to allow me to take...

Get Your Head Right
So Open WOD 13.4 was released Wednesday night and I was not happy about the choice of movements. Toes to Bar. Seriously? You pick another one of those moves that I can’t hit yet. I was pretty down about it for most of today and my head wasn’t into tonight’s WOD or anything else. Queue up Katie and words of...
Even When You Don’t Want Too
I had to bail on a scheduled workout last night (sorry Tavia), but I did not react will to an adjustment I received last night. The Dr’s were having trouble moving my back and tried a new technique. We won’t be using it again, I felt absolutely terrible for the remainder of the evening and most of today. After a...
The Aftermath
First off let me say THANK YOU to everyone who came out to celebrate my birthday Saturday night (and to those who couldn’t make it and wished me Happy Birthday too), I hope you had as much fun as I did. The venue was pretty good, the drinks were tasty and the company was best of all. Needless to say...
NO REP!
I swear I will be waking up in the middle of the night having heard those most EVIL of CrossFit terms in the middle of a nightmare… NO REP. The cold sweat is already starting and I’m afraid to close my eyes because of the GAZILLION No Reps I heard during 13.3. Karen it a straight up b*tch and she...
Hit The Bottom of The Top!
Well holy moly, my birthday is here and I have a hot date with the Rope. First off a big thanks for all the birthday wishes that I’ve received all day long, you guys have really made my day! I was chatting Keffie last night and I’ve come to the conclusion that this will be the year of Beez. Now...
Oh SNAP!!
It has been a pretty intense couple of hours… Actually make it the last couple of weeks. First off, this last stretch of eating (no sugar) is really tough and I’m not sure that it was something that I could maintain over the long haul. Although, there have been CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES kicking around the office for the last couple...
The 5 W’s
Who, What, Where, When, Why and sometimes How… Dad. Birthday. Kitchener (although currently in Niagara Falls with Momma C). Today. Well, because it is. How, well, we’ll just leave that one alone today. Happy Birthday Old Man!! Now there is a gaping hole on the calendar for yesterday’s workout and there was no way I could get around it. ...
Crispy With a Side of Fries
Here comes the last push before the birthday and I’m seriously hoping my body is on board with that plan. When I got off the bike yesterday my lower back (left side) wasn’t feeling particularly awesome, but I hadn’t done anything really creative to irritate it. That got me thinking and I realized that it first started to stiffen up...
It’s a Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood
With the sun streaming in the window this morning, I thought spring might actually be upon us. With Grande Pike in hand I headed for a walk around the neighborhood to loosen the old bones up for a spin session with Spritz this afternoon. Coach Jillian (Tavia) has me on a tight schedule and we are pushing extra hard this...
