Starting CrossFit at 63 . . .

 

It doesn't matter what you are thinking, or what fear you have, if you just do it!  Action is the only thing that matters . . . I can see that at the end of my life, I am not going to look back and say, "I wish I had taken more action".

Sh*t CrossFitters say . . .

 

Never forget that life can only be nobly inspired and rightly lived if you take it bravely and gallantly, as a splendid adventure in which you are setting out into an unknown country, to meet many a joy, to find many a comrade, to win and lose many a battle.

As you go along your road in life, you will, if you aim high enough, also meet resistance . . . but not matter how tough the opposition may seem, have courage still - and persevere.

The history of the CrossFit Games . . .

 

So what do we do? Anything. Something. So long as we don't just sit there. If we screw it up, start over. Try something else. If we wait until we've satisfied all the uncertainties, it may be too late.
