Just Another CrossFit Mom: Bad Days Happen
http://dawnmsouth.blogspot.com/2015/02/bad-days-happen.html
Just Another CrossFit Mom. Monday, February 9, 2015. Have you ever hit that place where you wonder if you will ever get better at something or if you are just destined to be mediocre forever? Do you have that negative voice inside your head telling you just to hang up the lifting shoes? Maybe it's asking you "why bother getting up on those rings, you're just going to fail anyways? That voice can be loud. That voice can be defeating. That voice can also be a huge liar. Before you know it, your smile becom...

Just Another CrossFit Mom: Getting out of the Funk
http://dawnmsouth.blogspot.com/2015/03/getting-out-of-funk.html
Just Another CrossFit Mom. Wednesday, March 4, 2015. Getting out of the Funk. Excited about a new idea. Feeling all of these things at the same time. I swear it seems like I go through this at least once a week. How is it possible to have so many things that I want to do,so many things that I have a true desire to accomplish but somehow will sabotage myself from accomplishing it? How do I sabotage myself? Well, it's all over! Not one creative thought happens. Nothing. I describe this funk like having a d...

Just Another CrossFit Mom: What Works for You?
http://dawnmsouth.blogspot.com/2015/03/what-works-for-you.html
Just Another CrossFit Mom. Monday, March 2, 2015. What Works for You? Step Reebok.these people looked badass. I wanted to put floor lighting in my living room! When it comes to deciding what fitness program works for you, the hardest part is the number of choices available. Of course, whatever your friends are doing will most likely be your first test drive. Especially if they are getting results. I know that’s how I used to choose a fitness program. What are my friends doing? In 1997, yes it did. I alwa...

Just Another CrossFit Mom: Who Inspires You?
http://dawnmsouth.blogspot.com/2015/02/who-inspires-you.html
Just Another CrossFit Mom. Thursday, February 12, 2015. For me, it's not just one person because I have a list of things I want to accomplish. Maybe that is the reason I can get bogged down and feel like I'm not accomplishing ANYTHING. Here is the remarkable thing. He doesn't do these things to make his list longer. He does them because, in his words "I want to do everything.". He means it. He really wants to do EVERYTHING! I forgot to mention that one, didn't I? Today, Brendan is my inspiration. It̵...

Just Another CrossFit Mom: July 2014
http://dawnmsouth.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Just Another CrossFit Mom. Friday, July 11, 2014. Sometimes We Need To Take the Scenic Route. Even the best laid plans don't always go as expected. Since beginning my CrossFit journey almost 5 years ago, I knew almost immediately that I wanted to be a coach and one day have my own gym, but not for the reasons you would expect.or maybe so. How could I not share this? How could I possibly keep this to myself? I had found the best therapy for me. Fast forward two and half years and I was blessed with the op...

Just Another CrossFit Mom: May 2013
http://dawnmsouth.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Just Another CrossFit Mom. Tuesday, May 7, 2013. When I first began this blog, almost 2 years ago, I was a fairly new CrossFitter with stars in my eyes and big dreams about making it to the CrossFit Games one day. I had my plans on how I was going to get there. I was going to do 2-a-days, add strength and Oly work to my training, clean up my diet, run more, ect., ect. This was a great plan and I began competing in local competitions. (I LOVE competing! What could be bigger than making it to the Games?

Just Another CrossFit Mom: January 2015
http://dawnmsouth.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Just Another CrossFit Mom. Tuesday, January 20, 2015. WODism For Autism, the Beginning. About five years ago I went to an event hosted by Sean Dickson (owner of Riverchase CrossFit). This event was called Backpack for Buddies and was held at a local park on a Saturday afternoon. I spent the whole drive home in deep thought, my mind going a thousand miles an hour. The more I thought about it the more I realized that I could do something like this, too. I was energized! And he was happy to help! And the fo...

Just Another CrossFit Mom: December 2012
http://dawnmsouth.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Just Another CrossFit Mom. Sunday, December 30, 2012. You Can Do This! It is that time again when one year comes to an end and another year begins. A time when we look back on the past year and pat ourselves on the back for achieving goals that we set for ourselves OR wonder "What the hell happened? I have stated before that I don't believe in New Year's Resolutions. Why? Well, let me ask you. How many of your New Year's Resolutions have you actually achieved? My guess is, probably not that many. I recie...

Just Another CrossFit Mom: December 2013
http://dawnmsouth.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Just Another CrossFit Mom. Tuesday, December 31, 2013. New Year, New Goals. Once again it is that time of year where I look back on the past 12 months and take an inventory on the year past. Admittedly, there have been years that were just too painful for me to dwell on, but thankfully those have been few and very far between. This year was not one of those years. So how could I say that 2013 year has been the best year I have had in a really long time? Did I meet all my goals for 2013? How many times ha...

Just Another CrossFit Mom: The Power of the Coach
http://dawnmsouth.blogspot.com/2015/02/the-power-of-coach.html
Just Another CrossFit Mom. Friday, February 13, 2015. The Power of the Coach. I wonder sometimes if people truly understand the influence a coach has on someone. I am not just talking about a gold winning coach, I am talking about anyone that is in the position to teach and train someone to do a sport. Whether it is football, swimming, Olympic lifting, track, CrossFit .ANYTHING! This person has been given an incredible amount of power. I am a grown up though and I have some pretty tough skin. Kids? If yo...
