I have really enjoyed the last few days of training. My girls came along with me on Saturday and I was so incredibly proud of them. The workout was a long, chipper WOD (one where you have to chip away at it until it's done) and both girls completed it well under the time cap. I scaled the girls workout to suit them by shortening the run from 800m to 400m, bodyweight lunges, push ups instead of handstand push ups and Missy T did sit ups instead of toes to bar while Moo did knee raise.
Moo was a little bit slower than Missy T who had finished well in front of us so I hung around to do the final run with her. It meant that my time was not that great but I loved finishing the WOD with my daughter. Missy T took some joy in getting hi-5'd by one of the coaches when she was done and someone turned around in disbelief that she completed a tough workout like that. They are both really taking to CrossFit and are always keen to hear what the Saturday WOD will be. Moo is always hoping for kettlebell swings and Missy T loves it when box jumps come up. I love seeing them so excited about exercise.

Hi Michelle! I do love the pics of you in action. I also don't have a scary face--and I was a little disappointed about that when I saw my own gym pics. You'd think we would, being girl monsters and all, but almost all of the really fit women I know are actually very feminine looking--not brutish looking at all. We just feel brutish inside. We are still scary, we just don't LOOK scary. :D
