Last Weekend in Springfield

Posted by MAKING PROGRESS On Friday 0 comments
I can't believe this is my last weekend in Springfield IL.  I am now 26 years old and have called this my home for 23 of those years!  My big sis is coming down from Chicago to see me before I take off, I am also going to have a couple family get together's this weekend.  It kind of feels like college all over again!  

I get to teach my last weekend class at CrossFit Instinct tomorrow as well.  I love how our Saturday on-ramp Flow Master sessions go, it is one of my favorite challenges as a coach.  We get to go in with an idea and create a workout that works for whoever might show up!  I'm going to miss the connection we gained from being put on the spot and making something work under pressure.  Love it!

This will also be my last Saturday 9:30 class hope lots of people come out, Saturday classes are some of my favorite!  

I am teaching all my normal classes next week.  
Monday 5am and 6am
Tuesday 5pm
Wed 6am
Thurs 5:30pm 
Friday 6am - last class 

Tony M made a little video of CFI Good stuff T-Money! 


I leave Friday after class.  Motorcycle in the back of the truck and the bare essentials to get started in AZ.  Hope whoever can make the classes get to come out, I have been really cherishing seeing everyone in class.

Create a great day!

I just wanted to give a big thanks to everyone for making my last days here special.  I had a blast Sat night thanks again for putting that on and to everyone that came out!!  I honestly couldn't think of a better party haha geeking out on big screen Crossfit Games and hanging out with tons of friends.

Saturday 2 girls 1 guy was awesome too!  It was fun to partner up and complete some classic workouts!  Everyone there did awesome!  Love you guys I am cherishing every second I get to teach and be in the gym!

I am leaving for Scottsdale July 27, 2012 it is a Friday.  It is creeping up so quickly!  I wanted to let everyone know how much I am going to miss this place and the people that have been apart of my life.  I have made a lot of true friends that have been there for me through the good and the bad times of my life.  I love you all and thank you! 

Most of the people that this will reach have been a part of my life through Crossfit Instinct, a place I will never stop being a part of.  Tim and Molly this couldn't have been a better ride and even though we started off as friends I can't believe how close we have become through all of our experiences.  Growing as a Coach and a person along side you guys has been one of the best things that has ever happened in my life.  I remember when we were just talking about working together and then finally it happened.  I love you guys and thank you for everything, I will always be there for you and be whatever you need me to be!  Can't wait to see the growth and visit and watch you guys and AO continue with everything! So thankful you were inserted back into my life AO crazy how things happen (PPHS alumni)! haha seriously awesome! 


To all the members and friends, seeing your faces everyday and being able to lead classes that you all bring so much energy to has been so inspiring and motivating! Waking up early has never been so easy when I know I get to teach a group of great people when I get to the gym!  From the dumb questions to the technical teaching of skills I love every second!  I can't express how much you all have changed my life and helped me grow!   Every class I learn something new and grow from it!   

I really could go on forever and I might post more on this before I leave and even after I leave.  I just wanted to write a quick note and thank everyone!  I love you guys! 

I will work to keep this updated!
