My Crossfit experience @Crossfit Fortress: Monday 2/27/12

First I would like to congratulate all my Crossfit Fortress Spartans for doing the race this weekend!! I wish I was there. I looked it up on youtube and thought it would be so fun!! Of course hard as hell, but fun. Hopefully next year I can do it! I need to build up my endurance.
I just loved looking at all the pics from the Spartan Race.

Pretty good I think!! It's only been 4 months. IMPROVEMENT made! Let's see whats next. I am really proud of myself. I have missed some time here and there, but I know I will get better. I love how everyone in class is so positive and how we all have a laugh. Loving CROSSFIT!!! I encourage everyone to try it! I have a few friends that have joined in other crossfit gyms and they say the same thing too. It's addicting!
