Not The Placement, But The Place

I had a blast last year at Wodapalooza 2016, and looking back, it not only changed my CrossFit career, but how I tackle personal goals as well. Here's a bit of insight on having fun, being in the moment and enjoying the place, not the placement. Shout out to qualifying at #74 out of #75 and finishing in 15th!

On Nutrition, Traveling Abroad, and Finding Clarity

Traveling abroad can be a difficult decision to make for anyone. But when faced with a plethora of wine, cheese, pasta, bread and gelato, how is a determined, focused athlete supposed to stay on track? Well, it's ok to take a left turn sometimes and take a break. After all, we deserve it sometimes don't we?

See how I overcame my inabilities as a CrossFit athlete to do things that challenged me the most. And see how that's led me to leap outside my comfort zone by going on a trip to Northern Italy in Switzerland in late August. By: Aimee Young

An Investment in Travel Is An Investment in Yourself
An Investment in Travel Is An Investment in Yourself

"An investment in travel is an investment in yourself." And while they say, you get what you pay for, I've come to learn firsthand the truths of both sayings. But when you're traveling Europe, there's certainly a right way and a wrong way to do it. With VoyEdge RX itineraries, we agreed that we want to provide the best damn trips out there - and truly believe every penny you spend on us, will be far more worth it than you could ever imagine...read more.

CrossFit Reach's FallFest - 11.20.2016
CrossFit Reach's FallFest - 11.20.2016

Competitions aren't solely about competing against others. It's a test of will, a test of your own personal resolve. A drive to be "better" and the encompassing journey. It's about cheering on others more fit than you - and those less fit to you, because each of our own fitness journey's look a little bit different and that's perfectly ok. Here's my post about competing in CrossFit Reach's #FallFest. Read more here....
