Aftermath Wednesday (March 18) – Twice in a week? Two days back-to-back? Such a thing hasn’t happened for a really long time (too long really), but it’s nice to have a routine (even if it’s a tiny one). If you haven’t figured it out by now, I like a schedule. When I first started @CrossFitCanuck I was there every Mon,...

Holy Shamrocks Batman
Like my new hat??? Tuesday (March 17) – Kiss me I’m Irish! Ok, so the posting comes long after the green beer is gone and the rivers of Chicago have returned to whatever color they are the other 364 days of the year, but what are you gonna do. Figuring that life would slow down once we got back from...
Taking The Left Fork
Saturday (March 14) – Welcome back to the fork in the road. I know that I prattle on about CrossFit, but when you find something that you really enjoy and gives you results, then you want to shout about it. Sure there have been bumps in the road, but it has been quite the journey. One of the things that...
Double Your Pleasure
View from the hotel… Monday (March 9) – All good things must come to an end (I guess) and so has the epic cruise vacation. Sadly, @SavannahJessie and I made the trek from warm (yet cloudy) Miami, back to shockingly warm and sunny Toronto. Wait, say that slowly, warm and SUNNY. When we left it was -35C with the windchill....
Cruising 2015
Last time I saw that hat before it blew away and sank… I’m on a boat with my Flippy Floppies! Friday – Sunday (Feb 27 to Mar 8) – WOOHOO, I made it this time! After last year’s Mother Nature related cluster bomb of stupidity, the entire clan has finally made it on a cruise (albeit separately, on different sailings,...
The Happiest Time of the Year
Weak wrists… Boo… Thursday (Feb 27) – It’s here. OMG (Oh my god for those who aren’t down with the short forms). The 2015 CrossFit Open starts tonight at 8pm with an announcement and a throwdown involving the 4-time CrossFit Games Champion Rich Froning. Now @CrossFitCanuck we have a little tradition on announcement night involving viewing the announcement and then...
So We Begin Again
These new Rowers are AWESOME! Friday (February 20) – The streak is over!!??!?!!! For the first time since November 2012, I have ‘no showed’ for a class @CrossFitCanuck. I was trying to make it to the Nooner (which is becoming more and more difficult, stupid work) and I got caught up. I looked up and it was 12:07pm… CRAP! Well that...
