I'm backkkk! Yup back at my home gym and it is competition season. This morning our gym went to a event at Luke Air Force Base. I did not compete but I did take photos. I have not done a competition other then the Fight Gone Bad Event, which works for me.
Just going to these events and watching/photographing the athletes is pretty exciting for me. Of course I love the fact I get these great photos I wouldn't normally shoot. But seeing my friends doing these insane workouts is really inspiring for me. Today one of our girls (Emily) did 80 unbroken double unders (jumping rope two rope rotations for every one jump). It was great, the entire place watched, cheered and clapped when she finished. It's just a lot of fun and it's something that is good for me in so many ways. To be honest I haven't found a negative side to any part of my CrossFitting experience...
Today I went through the base's gym facility walking through the place I saw a lot of people lifting, running on treadmills, alone with their head phones on. Then I go back to the event where people are cheering, laughing and teaming up for their workout. I felt lucky that I have the camaraderie I get from Core CrossFit.
