Here are a few of my highlights:
- Meeting and getting to watch the work outs of some of the top of the top Crossfitters - amazing athletes and very nice people!
- Judging Crossfit for the first time - I was so nervous but so happy to have gotten this under my belt. I learned more every round I did and I didn't screwed up any one's score in the process.
- Competing on Saturday for the Games 12.2 work out - Facing the scariness makes you grow. I grew this weekend. Also it continued to reenforce for me the fabulous-ness of the Crossfit community.
- Time with friends - I had some great conversations with friends I have had for a long time, some one I was just getting to know and one on one time with a person who continually inspires me. I felt honored to connect and get time with each of these people
- Time with a mentor - Nick Tumminello was up at the Arnold this year teaching at the personal trainer conference. I have had the fortune to connect with Nick a few times but this was a cool chance to get some time in a more relaxed setting. He is so friggin' smart about this training stuff. It is hard for me not to feel completely stupid around him but I loved the time anyway! :)
- The Strikeforce Fights - We all went to the fights on Saturday and it was a great time to see a new woman champion take the belt and to see all the fun people at the fights. Amazing night!
- Clarity - We went to the figure finals judging this year. It was awesome to see all those women on stage showing off their hard work. Competing in figure is something I have tried to convince myself I "should" do for several years now. This year after seeing it again and having a year of Crossfit experience under my belt, I was able to just let that go completely. I want to be strong and I would love to be ripped but my goals are different than those that were up on stage. It was great to get clarity around that.
There is more I could mention (cake batter vodka, anyone?) here but those are the big high lights!
I loved it. I am still on a high from it and I can't wait for next year!!
