My legs would like to thank the Crossfit gods for the Workout of the Day today! It turned out to be a WOD that focused mostly on the upper body which my quads really appreciated. We had a good 1.5 mile run on the warm-up and I had a nice chat with one of the members. Clearly one of the best parts of Crossfit is the camaraderie that you build with the people there. I have had a good time getting to know a few of the folks that are members of the local box. After four days I have realized that the workouts in Crossfit are tough, can be applied a number of fitness abilities and the variety will keep me from getting bored. I do have most of the gear at home to do these workouts so it is hard to justify paying a membership fee. If I did not have my own gear, I would absolutely join up!
