I meant to write this yesterday, but I want to throw major props to my 6:30 AM TTh Bootcamp! Yesterday we revisited our first workout EVER together and started our final week of bootcamp with our benchmark workouts. All of the bootcampers improved their time by at least a minute, and some even by three minutes! I'm super impressed because this group is already very fit and athletic, and it only gets better from here. Way to go NE Minneapolis Bootcamp!

Becoming CrossFIT
One of my favorite benchmark WODs is Cindy because it looks and sounds so deceptively simple and then those darn push-ups get me every time! I just don't have the upper body strength I guess. Today we did Cindy and I felt a little down on myself afterward because I didn't perform as well as I had hoped, but then I had a great conversation with another member that really got me excited about CrossFit and performance again.

Total + Nutrition
Today I had a meeting with a nutritionist at school and we did CrossFit Total at the gym, both good things to assess every once in a while.

Bacon makes everything better
Today I updated my tomato-basil-mushroom frittata with a little bacon and it was MUCH better this time around. Just goes to show what you can do with a few leftover ingredients in your fridge, I just happened to have these things lying around...I recommend at least keeping onion and garlic in your pantry, as these will spice up ANY dish!

Paleo in the wilderness: easy as pie
I have just returned from a weekend in the wilderness (a.k.a. North Shore Lake Superior, camping out at Splitrock Lighthouse State Park)! It was loads of fun being in nature and living out of my backpack for a few days...and it was a fun challenge to stay paleo too!

Home is where the CrossFit gym is!
Today at CFSP, we had the very rare occurrence in our 6:00 PM class to be graced by the WOD dominance of THREE (3!!!) visiting CrossFitters from different states. Usually we get a few people passing through our gym weekly who are visiting the Twin Cities for various reasons, but these three individuals are not only visitors, they're REPEAT visitors!
