So happy I pulled my butt out of bed for the 6am! Nice to see some new faces. Great work this morning everyone and thank you Marie-No for the motivation. Love having you coach this week!
Looking strong Chantal!
Yay Chantal! Looking great!
QOD: Yes, I have 4. First one I was 19 🙂 suns around my ankle; 2 serpents in a heart shape on my ribcage and my 2 sons names and birth dates on each of my wrists, that’s it so far.
What a WOD today! Good luck everyone!
Aw! Thanks for the picture… perfect timing. I was getting a little overwhelmed this morning when I was dressing up (putting on jeans that didn’t fit me just a few months ago), realizing my challenge is over in 16 days. SIXTEEN days! Out of 126 days. And then I’m going to have to find a new goal to keep me going… but that’s already in the works 🙂
Anyone interested into making better nutrition changes HAS to look into the zone. It’s easy once you get the hang of it!
QOD: No. I wanted one when I was 16, and my dad absolutely did not allow me since I needed parental agreement to get one done. He told me: when you’re old enough to make your own decisions you can do whatever. And now I’m 27 and I still don’t have a tattoo, but I still want one. I just don’t know where to start because I have too many ideas 🙂
I am going to check out the Zone Chantal. You look terrific…
Thanks Jackie! I miss you and Bob at 6 am.. I’m going to have to stop in soon!
pssst: it’s time for pullups 🙂
Looking like a beaut as always!

I am absolutely knackered today, I’ve been so busy at work. The prospect of this workout this morning was daunting, but it all worked out great and I feel terrific. 🙂
Have a lovely weekend everyone. And to those doing the Spartan Race…AROO! Good luck!
QOD: None so far, but I plan to have one before October 🙂
For that Big 40! Lol
Chantal, you’re looking really FANTASTIC and so strong! Way to go on setting a goal and sticking with it!!
QOD: I have a couple 🙂 hahaha
All of them represent a person/event/moment in my life that was meaningful to me. My very first one was a memorial tattoo. An angel with my grandmother’s name under it. It was a very emotional tattoo for me, as she hadn’t been gone for long and had been taken from us too soon. I wanted to cry, but the sign above the tattoo artist’s head said “How about a nice big cup of shut the [email protected] up”…so I sat in stoic/terrified silence 😛 bahahaha
Qod: I have one tattoo that I waited a long time to get. I really wanted it to mean something so I got a celtic cross to go with my family name and all the kids names and Amy’s birth stone all incorporated. I may get more some day! ☺
Very sad to miss some good wod’s this week and mostly missing Marie-Noelle’s coaching!!!
QOD: none, there’s nothing I can think of that I would like forever 🙂

Fun WOD this morning, great work 6am class! Thanks Marie-Noelle!
QOD: I have four small tattoos. The first one I got was at age 23 and was inspired by my favorite book “East of Eden” by John Steinbeck. It is the word “Timshel” which according to the book is a Hebrew word meaning “Thou mayest.” While a couple characters are discussing this word and its meaning in the book one of them says, “But I have a new love for that glittering instrument, the human soul. It is a lovely and unique thing in the universe. It is always attacked and never destroyed because ‘Thou mayest.’” So to me, it means free will and perseverance.
I also have my son’s name tattooed on my shoulder, which is in his own handwriting that he wrote on a piece of paper for me when he was 3.
The third is a lunch note that my mother had written me and that I had kept for some reason and had found in a box when I was helping my dad clean out my old room at his place after she had passed away.
The fourth one is Megaman from Nintendo because I needed a fun one!
Wow, what a workout!
