Me Crossfit?

Okay, for this blog I'm going to have to back up a bit. Back at the first of August Scott, Nicole and I were having street tacos at our favorite taco stand in Layton. While we were sitting there feeding our faces I looked across the street and saw these people working out so hard I thought they were going to start puking! I realized it was a new gym (and I use the word loosely because it wasn't no Gold's that's for sure). The sign said Wasatch Crossfit.(visit them at atch Crossfit Bootcamp and Personal Training Company) However, the more I watched the more I thought "I can do that!". I didn't realize I said it outloud but then Scott and I started talking about it. Scott is always so encouraging to let me try anything....silly him!

So, after we finished eating we went across the street and asked about their "bootcamp". When I found out it was 3 months for $300 I told Scott how good of a deal that was since I had looked into others that were $300 for 6 weeks. I signed on the bottom line and the rest is history...so to speak.
I have now been doing crossfit boot camp for 2 1/2 months and I love it. I love my instructor he is really good and professional and his mom is even in my class.

I have learned that I can deadlift 55#'s and thrust 45#'s over my head ten times for 3 rounds.
Scott says he can see a difference but the scale hasn't budged much. Best thing is I do feel better. I never thought that age would catch up with me but it has and I've realized that I can still keep active which will hopefully help be live longer to enjoy the kids and grandkids.
