I just saw 300, the Frank Miller movie about 300 Spartans who held back the tyrannical hordes of Persia over three days.
It was OK.
But I did want to come home and do 300 push-ups afterwards, then spear my enemies, pulling them closer through the shaft to watch the light in their eyes extinguish. But, I did neither. I thought about it though. It was that sort of day at work.

This site chronicles my interest in CrossFit and how it pertains to rock & ice climbing, Olympic style lifting, baseball and softball, and yoga. By night I personal train people using CrossFit modalities. I'm taking new clients if you're interested.

Hey, hows it going? Are you coming to Crossfit DC on Sunday?
If you know anyone in the Silver spring area send them my way. I'm doing this Fit Camp on Saturdays.
