When I first started CrossFit 8+ months ago, I'd never dead lifted anything except maybe picking a baby up from the floor. So getting to a point of dead-lifting, 75-95 pounds seemed crazy to me. I remember seeing those girls... Continue reading

Yeah, I saw on someone else's Facebook page about a pig lung being directed in elementary at her son's school. Apparently that is a thing here that I wasn't aware of. However, the friend is the one taking the photo. Meaning parents were involved, were present, and given the opportunity as well as advanced knowledge to participate or not. Which I thin for that age, should have been expected. Especially at our small little school and knowing the circumstances of our family dynamic.
