I first heard about CrossFit from a Bloom magazine article about a year ago. Beginning to feel the aches, pains, and stiffness of “middle age,” I was intrigued by the training model, but neither of the locations was convenient. The small slip of paper with the phone number sat on my desk for months before I called.

This past Thanksgiving my twin sister, Jenny, brought home her boyfriend, Anthony (a CrossFit trainer out in Kansas City, MO), and initially introduced me to CrossFit. Before this, I was the typical 30 minutes on an elliptical while reading a magazine kind of girl (never again). He ended up taking us to the YMCA and giving a brief tutorial on what a CrossFit workout was like. After doing what seemed like a million walking lunges, some form of a ridiculous looking modified handstand push up, and the beloved burpees, I was hooked. I remember going home and telling my dad I wanted to do this NOW!

I guess my fascination with fitness started with my love for crappy, 1980′s action movies. Almost every guy grows up wanting to be the machine-gun wielding, muscle-bound behemoth that leaves a path of destruction is his wake, gets the girl, and opens the door for crappier sequels. This had seemed like a far off dream to me, because as much as I loved movies, I loved Big Macs more. Like most kids, I participated in a variety of sports; baseball, football, soccer, basketball, etc. But I was never as slim as my teammates.

I was a thirty-something year old runner and in decent shape compared to many people I know. Like most runners, I ran–a lot–and even completed my first marathon in early 2010. Realistically, I am not a podium finisher but I can hold my own in local 5K races to place at or near top of my age group. I am a competitive, type A personality with a good imagination; even when running alone, I envision myself throwing elbows with Kenyans as we approach the finish line in slow motion, Chariots of Fire style.

NUTRITION:
“By converting to an animal fat-based metabolism, you are returning to the ancestral human fuel source. And the best way to switch to fat burning is to start eating more animals and whatever fat comes with them.” – Mark Sisson, writer of the Primal Blueprint and Mark’s Daily Apple blog

“I DON’T HAVE TIME TO WORK OUT!! ARE YOU CRAZY?!?!” That was my internal dialogue, fought between my rational self and my other rational self. It makes sense for a medical student, living up to insane time demands and learning volumes of material day to day to forgo the pleasantries of life such as EXERCISE.

May 2010: I had recently run the 500 Festival Mini Marathon and gave away our youngest daughter Lisa to Ryan Koontz at their May 22nd wedding. Shaun just happened to be best man. About a month later, my new son-in-law Ryan calls me one Saturday morning and says; “Shaun is doing free CrossFit workouts at Bryan Park, want to come with me?” I said sure, I’ll try it.

I initially became aware of CrossFit through everyone’s preferred voyeuristic medium, Facebook. A childhood friend of mine started CrossFitting at her local affiliate, and I became intrigued by her constant status updates and the pictures she posted. The more I Facebook-stalked her CrossFitting experiences, the more I wanted to know about it.
