Fight Gone Bad III (228)

CrazyWife showed up to San Antonio CrossFit to help me help them pull off a great event and successful fund raiser. She then proceed to get talked into competing in the Fight Gone Bad workout (all this without proper shorts and no shoes) and tried her hardest to win the women's division (and she nearly pulled it off). She took 3rd place overall with an impressive Personal Record of 228. She even beat the two men in her heat at the C2 Rower. Great job CrazyWife!!!!

Helping CF S.A. with Fight Gone Bad III

CrazyHusband will be across town helping out Brad with CrossFit San Antonio in their Fight Gone Bad III workout. Should be a fun event and it's for a great cause.

Next weekend, CrazyWife and I will be heading to Dallas for the CF nutrition certification to get our Zone dialed in with Robb Wolf. Should be an outstanding event.

Then, finally, we will be heading back to Jimmy Brought and Fort Sam Houston for a Saturday workout on 11 OCT 08. Stay tuned for more info...

Saturday workout on Fort Sam Houston

CrazyWife CrossFit will taking the show on the road and working out on Fort Sam Houston at the Jimmy Brought Physical Fitness Center this Saturday at 0830.

We will meet out front on the benches for anyone interested in hitting the WOD and getting some quality instruction on form and technique.

Beginners are always welcome. Workouts are always scalebale to any ability level.

We are working on getting the blessing of the powers that be at Jimmy Brought to make this a semi-permenant situation so stay tuned...

We are also working on getting our business switched over to a not-for-profit organization so we can work primarily with Active Duty military who will be able to workout for free. This will require some buy-in from MWR but we are confident that this relationship will benefit all parties involved and especially those Soldiers and their families who are hearing more about CrossFit and want to learn more.

Lastly, we are fresh off our CrossFit Kids certification in Ramona, California over Labor Day weekend and we are very excited to look at getting approval for our very own CF Kids affiliation and bringing this wonderful program on post as well to get our kids moving and having fun while working out.

Final update(s): CrazyWife and I are headed to the CF Nutrition certification in Dallas on 4 October so we won't be full speed ahead at Jimmy Brought until the following week. We will also be working with CrossFit San Antonio on the west side of town on 27 September for the worldwide Fight Gone Bad III event so we'll be out of the net but you can contact us if you are interested in participating or helping out. It's for two worthy causes, Prostate Cancer and the Wounded Warriors Foundation and it is a kick-butt workout. Absolutely last thing...CrazyHusband is heading to the Barbell cert in Newport, California in November so he'll be brining even more expertise to a workout near you. Stay tuned...

What are you striving for?

"It must be borne in mind that the great tragedy in life is not in
failing to reach all of your goals--it is in having no goals for
which you are reaching.

It is not a calamity if somehow you die with dreams unfulfilled but
it is a calamity not to dream.

It is not a disgrace if you fail to reach the stars, but it is a
disgrace if you have no stars for which you are reaching.

It is not a disaster if you fail to achieve your highest ideals,
but it is a disaster if you have no high ideals for which you are
striving. Not failure, but lower aim is sin."

Benjamin Elijah Mays - Former President Of Morehouse college

Act...Succeed

"I will act now. I will act now. I will act now. Henceforth, I will repeat these words each hour, each day, everyday, until the words become as much a habit as my breathing, and the action which follows becomes as instinctive as the blinking of my eyelids.

With these words I can condition my mind to perform every action necessary for my success. I will act now. I will repeat these words again and again and again. I will walk where failures fear to walk. I will work when failures seek to rest. I will act now for now is all I have.

Tomorrow is the day reserved for the labor of the lazy. I am not lazy. Tomorrow is the day when the failure will succeed. I am not a failure. I will act now.

Success will not wait. If I delay, success will become wed to another and lost to me forever. This is the time. This is the place.
I am the person."
