Happiness!
I can honestly say that is one thing that CrossFit brings into my life daily!
Being happy just feels good!
Regardless of how hard the WOD is, or when and where the “suck factor” rears its ugly head… at the end, there is always a state of happiness and accomplishment. So what if the WOD crushed me?? I still finished, and I am a better person for doing so! Not only that, I got to experience the “suck factor” with my friends (and often my loved ones!).
My score and my times fail to compare to the sense of accomplishment I feel at the end of the day. Not everyone gets to help others understand how strong they are, and how much potential they have inside of them… but we do… we, the coaches.
The coaches who earned their titles through experience, trial and error. The coaches who lead by example, and who will sacrifice being great to create greatness in others. There is a level of sincere integrity that has a powerful trickle-down effect among our coaches and athletes… and that leads to a very fun place to train! That is what sets us apart… no doubt! We are CrossFit… and we did it the right way, from the very beginning!
For me, fitness and coaching are fun… and they make me happy! There’s just something about seeing Carrie and Janice conquer that 95# barbell, and Amy conquer that box jump that is very gratifying and exciting!! How could you not be inspired by that??
Watching you all grow athletically is simply an amazing thing to witness, and I wanted to take a moment today to thank each ShedHead for being a part of our community. Really… THANK YOU!!
In addition, seeing our group of coaches develop into tremendous leaders is equally amazing, and I am grateful you choose to train at the shed and lead us to greatness.
Hope you all have a great Sunday!
