Well, I think I can say that I am officially having some sort of mid-life crises. π I’ve registered for the Tough Mudder…..YIKES! Marcel & I were “discussing” it on Saturday, so Saturday night I thought it would harmless to at least check out the website. The next thing I knew, I had given my credit card information & was registered. Now I am committed, and I am seriously starting to freak out a little bit, but excited at the same time.
So that said, I am putting a call out to all the CFM Ladies to join me in this crazy adventure. Nath & Maria, I heard you talking about it Saturday. Just Do It! Don’t leave me hangin’ girls…pretty please.

I’m in!! Speaking of mid life crisis lol… I’m turning 40 just 2 days before this thing π I want to start my year with a nice reminder of how great it is to be alive and kicking!
Who else wants to join our kickass team?
Chantal L.
Crazy girls! I wish I had the courage to say yes! I would be in if it be like… 3 miles maybe? haha! If ever you need supporters let me know, maybe I’ll jump in for a quick roadtrip;)
Nath.
I guess I’ve made my mind and decided I was crazy enough to do this…. Great to see we’ll have our girl team! Now we need matching T-shirts! π
Heidi
Way to go girlies. Misery loves company!
Vermont won’t know what hit them when CrossFit Moncton comes to town.
Nice work Heidi and Marcel!! Our team is looking really awesome!!! So I have already met with Maritime cresting and we are developing the logo, and shirt design. Girls: this team is open to you as well – do not feel you need to register another team – on race day just stick together and go at your own pace. There is Definitely power in numbers, and 6 people from CFSJ registered today and yesterday on our team – so they have their own lil mini clan within our Squad!!! Lots of positivity around this – I love it!!! Also, Brad Logan (CFM member and website developer extrordinaire) has also joined and will be putting together a Unique Beast Mode Squad website with lots of awesome info! There are many of you who have told me that you were gonna sign up and still havent – if you sign up before tomorrow night at 11:59pm you save $30 AND since our team is so big right now we will all receive a $20 rebate on top fo that!! π Msg me with any questions!!!

I don’t think any amount or foam rolling or heat therapy will get rid of the muscle pain in my back side before tonight’s WOD. I haven’t been this sore since introduction day. This isn’t a complaint by the way, I actually quite like knowing I pushed it that hard.
