Neil's Diary - Week of 120115
This week...
I saw complete strangers become friends in an instant
joined by a common obsession.
Senior citizens powering though multiple workouts with little rest between
No water aerobics here.
Women pick up 200 lbs, lunge with a 45 lb plate, and row for miles.
I saw ring dips and handstand pushups,
pullups and burpees,
muscleups and squat snatches.
I saw athletes push through mental and physical barriers
moving more weight faster than ever.
I saw the immobile become mobile,
the weak become strong,
the insecure become confident.
I saw my friends beaming with pride, doubled over in laughter, and embraced in love.
This week, I saw nothing unusual.
This is how we roll every day.
Nothing to see here, folks... It's just CrossFit.
