About Rachel
I've been crossfitting since 2010 and absolutely love it. While you will see me hit WODs at just about every hour of the day, my real heart is with the Morning Mayhem crew.
When I'm not crossfitting I am rock climbing, running, hiking, cycling, kayaking, taking photos, doing some artsy stuff, or spending time with my nephews and niece.
I crossfit to be healthier and stronger and one day climb El Capitan.

I’m not gonna lie. For me, the Hokey Pokey is one of my favorites. But honestly, I’ll take any sort of dancing at 5:45. You wanna throw a crossfit disco my way? I’m game. Monday morning I toyed with the … Continue reading →

I’ll admit, I’ve been slacking on the blog lately. It’s true. And I can accept a little honest criticism, so don’t be afraid to call me on it- it actually lights a sometimes needed fire under my ass. That said, … Continue reading →
