@ James, There's a lot of focus that's involved with any kind of athletic commitment. What I like best about CrossFit is being able to "check out" of my daily activities and "get out of my head." I do a lot of strategy in my career so it's nice to concentrate on something external and focus on something physical, my body. Thanks for your comment! I see you're an industrial bicycle designer, that's pretty exciting.
@Scott, CrossFit is amazing. I'd start by going here, http://www.crossfit.com/cf-info/what-crossfit.html, and hearing the official description. Then plug into YouTube and watch some videos. What I love about it is how it pushes you and your body to do things you never imagined. Part weightlifting, part gymnastics, part flexibility, part cardio--all pretty awesome. I'd love to chat about it more if you're interested!
@Emily, Thanks, Emily. Results, especially physical ones are probably the most incredible goals to achieve. I know you have a dancing background, so you can probably relate a lot this, especially when training for a performance? Thank you :) 105 weeks ago

TOP IDEA:Laura Kimball
I am ready to own it: my achievements, my failures, and my dreams. I need to believe in myself and know deep down in my core that this is who I am and this is who I am supposed to be. I have accomplished a lot over the past six years since standing at that dinner party and I want to do more. Much more.
Five years ago I helped launch the most ambitious book festival in the Pacific Northwest and I was scared shitless. Fear is a Four Letter Word: http://bit.ly/dphxDJ
