Well its been about a week and things are going well. I have a new outlook on my workouts and I am walking away from each one feeling pretty good.
I am not going to be worried where I stand with the other people in the gym, but only worry about how I feel about my workout and keep the intensity high. I love to see how everyone else is doing on the workouts, because it gives me motivation. I should not and will not ever compare my times to other peoples. I should only judge myself in how hard I work and encourage people to keep working hard as well. I have swayed away from having fun with the workouts a little and more focused on being the best. I need to find a balance of the both, so that I keep having a blast while pushing myself to new limits.
Today workout was a great example of what I am talking about. I said to myself I am not going to let my self DNF this workout (which is fine with me) but I get too focused on that and not focused enough on the peer enjoyment of pushing the limits of my body. I remember when I first started and I couldn't believe the stuff I was doing, after a while and I was making big strides. Now I don't noticed t
he strides I am making I am only noticing the things I am lacking. I need to get back to that, and I will.
Always time to reflect and with things changing in my life I have found things about me that I never knew about. I am glad crossfit has entered my life and I feel it will make me a better person all around.
Here is to enjoying each moment of everyday and being "HUMBLE" with each workout in the future.

Couldn't agree more. The need to be the "best" is constantly nagging at me. Takes some of the fun out of life, I suppose. We each have our crosses to bear... You're a rockstar! It's an honor to be on your team!
