In a previous post I mentioned how I had started Crossfit training. 5 months on and I am absolutely loving it. I can’t believe the difference it has made to my strength, cardio fitness, mobility and agility. I never get bored with the workouts of the day (WODs) – there is always something new to challenge me.
My good friend Pip at Crossfit 2600 approached me a couple of months ago and asked if I would like to be a part of the Crossfit 2600 team competing in the 2011 Crossfit Games sectionals. It was to be a chance to experience what the games are all about. To say I was nervous about it would be an understatement. I had only been doing crossfit for a few months at that stage. But hey, what the heck, what did I have to lose.
If you want to see how the sectionals and the games work then go to http://games.crossfit.com/.
We are now coming up to workout 5 of 6 in the sectionals and I have had such a good time getting through each of the workouts that are released each week. Some of them have been a real struggle for me but I am hanging in there. There were originally about 500+ women in Australia that submitted scores for workout 1. It is now down to 325 and I am sitting at about 245. I will be so happy if I can get through the last 2 workouts and say that I had a go at every event. Next year, the sky’s the limit!!!!!
