Day 10...

Crossfit... it's something that is changing me in so many ways.  My body is transforming, getting stronger, skinnier, healthier.  More capable.  My mind is also following trend - strengthening - making me realize that sometimes the limitations really are only mental, not physical.  And the community - it's enveloping me - introducing me to wonderful people - everyone with such different stories, backgrounds and yet we are all motivated by the same thing - to be better, stronger, fully capable.  It's an awesome dynamic and why I crave going to the box all the time - why I'm there 3 times a week.  Why I suffer through the sweat and the pain to shed myself of my doubts, my fears.  Push my limits.  Change them.

As Tim, our fine coach put it:

"...when the heavy, rapid breathing begins to diminish, and you find yourself able to string a few words together that somewhat resemble a sentence, you'll most likely hear yourself saying "that (gasp) was (gasp) awesome". "Totally fucked.. but awesome."

Crossfit... awesome in every way.
