Stream of consciousness

As I sit on the couch enjoying a glass of bubbly, I can't help but reflect on the events leading up to tonight. We leave in the morning for Regionals, and I am beyond proud of my awesome Handsome Hub. The man has busted his tail over the last year. No question there - he totally deserves every moment of this. As he gets more in his zone for 3 days of intense competition, I get more relaxed. He's got this. I know my role is support - getting him what he needs, getting him to the right place at the right time, and being there as a sounding board - everything I've always done as 'Coach Wiff'. And I love my role in this place. We have our routine and things are ready. The car is just about packed and we're off to San Antonio first thing. Check my Facebook and twitter for updates - I'm sure I'll be wearing them out this weekend! I can't help but look back at where the last year has led us. This time last year, we were headed off to Napa for a fabulous long weekend. So much has changed in our lives since then. Different friends, different routine, different everything. It's kind of crazy. We'll see how that circles back later, I'm sure. Ach. Enough of the heavy stuff now. Off to San Antonio! Send love and good vibes to HH, if you please! ;-)

It's another brag...

I know, I know, I need to stop it.  But I can't seem to help this!  I'm beyond proud of HH right now! So, you all know that Crossfit has taken over our lives.  This is not new or exciting.  The fact that that the Open is over now?  Mucho exciting (especially for a certain girl who entered under duress!).  The fact that HH finished SECOND in our region?  Super awesome!

Even cooler?  Go read this article.  Go ahead, I'll wait.  Ok, you're back now?  HOW FREAKIN' COOL WAS THAT?!?!?!  I know.  Now you see why I can't contain myself!

#10...

...IN THE WORLD!!!!!!





Not gonna lie - I'm beyond super proud of HH right now!  I told you that the Crossfit Open has taken over our lives - and I wasn't lying at all.  But I gotta brag a little bit - he's tied for 10th in the world on the 2nd workout!  Seriously - how stoked was I to pull up the MAIN scoreboard and see his name?!  Yup - beyond. I even took a picture of it.  (yeah, iphone + computer screen = maybe not perfect pic)




The second workout was kind of really technical - 10 minutes of snatch, which is one of the most technical of the Olympic lifts.  It was a progression in sets of 30 - going from light weight to BIG KID weight.  HH rocked it out and is now sitting 3rd in our region!!!  Here's the South Central scoreboard.  AND he even made this week's recap!  Yay!
