Today my coach said, "Good" twice to me--once during my front squat reps and once when I was speeding through my last set of 10 reps of Grace at 55% my 1RM (60#).
Wow.
I have waited 19 months for this.
You see, my coach doesn't say "good" unless it IS good.
Holy Fucking Wow. I am finally earning this.
Halleujah it feels good.
I don't take it for granted...no way. I've done that before.
You see, towards October of last year I sort of went adrift--forgot why I was in CrossFit in the first place, took my "status" in our box for granted. I got lazy.
My PR's still came, but they took FOREVER.
My "verve" was gone.
However, thank the gods it is BACK!
I am 45 and one of the top women in my box. Each day I fight to be better than the day before. Each day I KNOW why I CrossFit.
I CrossFit b/c I am infatuated with being strong.
I CrossFit b/c the confidence I have gained is worth more than all the money I've ever paid for any other sort of self-help in my life.
I CrossFit b/c now I have a driving purpose.
I CrossFit b/c I can.
Mostly I CrossFit so I can pass it on to those around me...and now they too love to CrossFit.
