crossfit competition: halloween edition

crossfit. this sport i used to say was stupid.. back when i was completely ignorant to what it actually was. this sport i used to say was never in a million years worth $150+ a month because i can just do the same workouts at gold's gym on my own for $20 a month. nope. i was wrong. crossfit is amazing and worth every penny i pay.

we were talking the other day during class about how some people call it a cult and then we realized it actually fits the definition of just that: a group of people with similar ideas, a leader and a uniform. but that's okay.. i like being part of this cult. i drank the cool aid. and in my opinion, everyone should try this cool aid.. it's addicting. 

this weekend my gym hosted an in-house partner competition.. meaning only people from our gym were invited.. in pure cult-like fashion.. and because it's october, we got to play adult dress up! so much fun! 

my partner and i decided to be mummies.. which was actually very fitting for her. can i just brag about my partner for a second? she had a baby less than two months ago and is already back breaking her own pre-baby records and running circles around most people in our gym! one day, i want to be like her. and the best part of our outfits was baby finn matching us and wearing a onesie that said "i love my mummy." 

i mean really people.. would something like this ever be allowed at your gold's gym or planet fitness? doubt it. crossfire is cooler. try it.  

and then things like this happen. this definitely wouldn't fly at gold's gym. 
ashley and i came in second place! not too bad for a new mom and girl who has been doing this whole crossfit thing for less than a year.

ben and riley came to cheer for us.. such a well behaved little lady we have.. sorry for the dog fur we left behind.. whoops! 

but really.. go check out your local box.. i promise you won't regret it. one of the best decisions we ever made.
