Saturday marked the 1 year anniversary of the start of the website our coach began before there even was a “real” box and workouts were done in a garage (or so I’m assuming based on what I’ve piecemealed together). A year ago on Saturday they did “Fight Gone Bad” as the wod so it only seemed fitting that one year later, in a real box, with over 20 of us there at 10am on Saturday, we’d do it again. One of the guys at the box does photography as a side job and captured these pictures of the event. And I say event not wod, because when I got in my car to leave, the clock said 12:58pm. I was there for 3 hours (we did it in groups of 3) and it didn’t even feel like more than 45 minutes.
I’ve become completely obsessed with crossfit in this past month. From the challenging workouts, to the amazingly nice and supportive people, to the awesome coaches, to the constant drive to push myself harder every day. I’ve never looked forward to working out more in my life even though I usually feel like death when I walk out that door.

So glad you have found something you love so much and are over the moon passionate about! That is how I feel about my gym and I have never been in better shape!
Love these pics! Looks like it was a blast! I have been CrossFitting for 3 months now and I am totally loving it. It is such a great feeling to work your butt off every day!
Great Job and Write up! Fight Gone Bad is a good one for sure. Keep up the great work.
FGB is such a killer workout, but one of my favs! Great pictures!
I love your passion! and blunt posts

Inspiring photos! Ack…no more excuses, I need to start strength training again!
You are in amazing shape. I would not want to bump into you on the wrong side of the tracks – girl you are FIERCE!!! Congrats on your amazing physical fitness!!!
It’s awesome that you’ve found a workout you love so much. I used to feel like that about doing body pump, but then decided I was too poor to keep paying for the gym.
Looking GREAT Gina! Sometimes I debate joining a box.. I just don’t know though! Love your pictures though!
Cait- do it! I think we’re a lot alike in our competitive ways, you’d love it!
Isn’t it so wonderful to be involved in a fitness community? Especially one that is supportive and crazy hard all at the same time. I’ve never done Crossfit but the more and more I hear, the more I want to try!
You totally should, I think you’d love it!
FGB is a tough one, just did it last night at my box. Love the photos and congrats to your coaches on their first year!
You look awesome girl!! Uff I cannot wait to start cross fit… just need to save up my pennies first! :/

Love the action shot, Gina! And yeah – I think “event” is the right term here
I wish I had something that I looked forward to this much! It makes all the difference for sure!
YES.
ps how are the shoes?!
I love them! Some new guy at the box came up to me on Saturday and said “fresh dogs, yo”…it took me about 30 seconds to process he was talking about my shoes.
Dag yo! Youz a machine!! I’ve heard Crossfit is such a challenge, but a fun one! I don’t think I’d be up for that (o_O). I’m still trying to complete 3 miles (-_-;
There is nothing like spending a Saturday morning crossfitting with like minded individuals! Looks like it was a great event!
