He Did It


After a long year of training, my fiancé qualified (in one of the toughest regions) for the CrossFit Worldwide Games! I couldn't be more proud of him. He is my hero.

It was an incredible weekend and for the first time in a while I really shut everything down. I did not worry about Glitter Guide, emails, tweets, or anything. It felt so good to focus all my energy on my fiancé, friends, and family. I need to do that more often.

Tomorrow I'm off to Los Angeles for the week. I'm working on a fun project that I'll share on my Twitter and Instagram while I'm there. I won't be posting that much this week, but will keep my social media channels updated.

Congrats to your fiance! What an awesome triumph! It's so cool when the people we love accomplish such great feats, isn't it? And...kudos to you for going "offline" during this time. I personally can attest to how hard that can be sometimes!

Well, congrats to him again and good luck to him in the future! :)

My husband and I are CrossFitters so I know what a HUGE deal this is!!! Massive congratulations to him. What an incredible achievement. Is he Paleo too?! ;)

Would love to do a guest post on your blog sometime btw. Don't judge mine by my latest posts - just had baby #3 two weeks ago, which made for 3 under 3 years old, so I'm still in hibernation.

Congrats to your hub! I did cross-fit before my injury last December and I can tell you, I never felt fitter besides my accident with the medicine ball, of course. It bounced and hit me on my face! Like being punched by a 5 kilo fist! Well I survived and months later injured my back till now :(

Come walk my footsteps in my visit to Venice/Treviso:
