The Crossfit games start in two days!  If you go to the Crossfit games website and sign up it's $20.  We will do the workouts on Weds, then again on Saturday at an affiliate.  It's a great opportunity to see where your level of fitness is and to compete against other athletes. 

I love this quote by Theodore Roosevelt and think it applies here...

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”
― Theodore Roosevelt

I know this is intimidating...it's going to be hard...it's going to suck...it's going to be inconvenient...
