I know, I know, I just got done telling you how you HAD to go to the Endless Beauty launch party (a crazy success, btw, photos and video here), and now I’m telling you about another event you HAVE to go to … the Blondes vs. Brunettes Fourth & Goal Gala, an inaugural Blondes vs.…

Blondes v Brunettes II
It’s probably going to be epic again. See last year’s inaugural Blondes vs. Brunettes recap here. This year, I’m QBing again, actually brunette, and ready to rock. The brunettes really are looking better than ever, and we’re only two practices in! There’s still time to join the team, click on the BvB Austin website for…

Sex & The City 2 Trailer
Women everywhere are rejoicing: less than two months til Sex & The City 2 premieres on May 28! Awesome trailer. Allison & I got goosebumps watching it–what nerds. But I unabashedly will get excited for it and will watch it, no matter how bad/theatrically void of merit it is. Check this video out too, while…
Primo Chalk!
Austinite CrossFitter and Olympic lifter Jeremy Brooks has created a new kind of chalk called PrimoChalk. As someone who constantly battles ripped hands, I am intrigued … especially because I am still a girl and I like things that say they contain essential oils. They say: “In PrimoChalk™ we’ve combined quality magnesium carbonate with a…
Put that in your tweet and smoke it
Sometimes, and by sometimes I mean most times lately, Mike likes to keep us guessing on what our workout will be. CrossFitters in Central’s coed classes get tweets the night before so they know what the workout is the next morning, we get nothing. Technically we’re supposed to always do the .com workout, but Mike…
“You’re not strong enough”
It seems like handstand pushups are all anyone thinks about these days. That and doubleunders, which Mike has had us doing in our warmup every single day since. Strength is pretty much all I’ve been thinking about though. Tuesday, before my hands ripped, Mike asked me why I wasn’t getting my chin all the way…
Bodies
I found this awhile ago but recently it’s been making the internet rounds again, and I think it’s totally worth sharing: here are five images from a Sports Illustrated for Women magazine (now defunct) article showing Olympians from a number of different sports in bikinis and showing how different their bodies are. I’ll let the…
Filthy Fifty
I’ve only attempted the Filthy Fifty one other time, and didn’t finish before our 30-minute cutoff. Today, after FIVE hours of skiing (on the blues, of course, Lisa!) I said to That Ripped Guy of Mine(TM): “If it’s a long metcon, I’m not doing it,” … because I’m going to drive the 25 minutes to…
First is the worst, second is the best, third is the one with the treasure chest …
Remember that rhyme from when you lost things as a kid? You’d taunt the winner by telling them they were actually the worst … maybe that was just my childhood, where you also got taunted for being a girl wearing a Ninja Turtles shorts + t-shirt combo that looked EXACTLY like the turtle shell sported…
