CrossFit Regionals

REGIONALS IS THIS WEEKEND!!!!!! Originally I was going to write this post to talk about how being frustrated can be a great motivator, but I'll save that for next week. What everyone in SoCal (next week if your in North Central) needs to be focused on is regionals. If you can go, please do. It's amazing. Way better than any video you have seen online. It will motivate you to no end. It's like being a part of a weekend long Rocky movie. I participated last year, and it changed everything for me. Suddenly I had concrete evidence of where I wanted to be... what I wanted to work for. You may not ever want to compete, or you might not think that you're "good enough", but trust me: this experience will light a fire. Somewhere, deep down inside, you will be able to empathize with an athlete struggling with a weight. You try to help them lift it with your will. You know that feeling. One more round. One more minute. One more rep. It's not just you either: the ENTIRE crowd are CrossFitters too, and now you're caught up in this storm of enthusiasm and encouragement. And that is the beauty of the whole thing: everyone, including the men and women who have already competed and won, are pulling for the underdog. Why do you think the world went nuts about Spealler last weekend. That is our community. Go get into it. 

Enough said. Stay tuned for more everyone!
