I'm a crossfit noob so naturally I did a ton of research before deciding to commit my time (and wallet) to crossfit.

It's funny, I've been to many hockey games, and I've always come prepared, long sleeve, hoodie, etc.

What was I thinking when we brought the kiddies in here ridiculously under-prepared?! It was freeeezing!  "Shoulda, coulda, woulda" anecdote aside,…More »

Today was day two of bikram. Up until yesterday, I had never set foot in a yoga class. This is going to be interestingly embarrassing, thought to myself.
