The Next Test


The Next Test-
I spent the last month lost in a fitness daze. My workouts were missing something... I would be exhausted after giving everything I had, but something wasn't there. I just didn't have the same drive and intensity during my WODs, and then it hit me. I had lost the "FIRE." The Half Ironman was a great test and a hell of an accomplishment, but it was over. I had been looking back instead of looking forward. Never have I realized how important goal setting is until this moment. I signed up for the All City Open in Dallas on December 10th. This is just what I needed. I had nothing on the horizon to look towards and train for. Once I clicked "Submit" I was BACK. Instantly I had that drive that I had been missing. Time to do work!!!
Finding something to shoot for is key to keep motivation and drive high. Without it we are sometimes going through the motions and don't even realize it. A "daze" can happen, combat that with goal setting. It doesn't matter what it is.... find something that motivates you, do whatever it takes to achieve it. Talk is cheap...you'll never get there if you never try. Set those goals and Sic Em!!  

Random thoughts-
1. Pray for Longhorn Football. We need fan support more now than ever.

2. Boot Camp FFA was awesome!!! The Neon support made me very proud. We will definitely have more FFA's in the future. Keep that neon on stand by.

3. The ACO competition is 21 days from now. Happy to get back into the CrossFit swing of things.

4. Drop in classes this upcoming Mon and Tues get signed up.

5. Eat that Turkey!!! And have a great holiday.
