The 2010 Sectionals have come and passed. Not only am I sore, humbled, and sunburned, but I also feel incredibly privileged when I think about the coaches that I am surrounded by and the clients that I have the privilege to coach; it is almost overwhelming. The sectionals went very smoothly and without any snafu, from what I could tell, so major props to all the hard work and long hours by the folks that put it on. What I learned about myself is to the point and very simple. If I want to be a competitive crossfiter I must be more conditioned and put away any pain that I let slow me down. If there are a few things I have learned in my four and a half years as a crossfiter, it is suck it up, have no fear and have FUN! I watch people walk around all tense and not having an ounce of fun and wound up so tight they could explode. I understand wanting to win, but man, if you can't enjoy the comradery and the competitive atmosphere then there is simply something wrong with you. I think I have the having fun part down, now it's time to take advantage of the fact that I have some of the fittest people around me and use them for there knowledge and input. Even coaches need coaches. With all this said, I will have laser beam focus on the affiliate team and my quest to be not only apart of the team, but also a team leader. If I want that for myself I must be better at my sport and lead by example. So in a sense, I'm calling myself out. It's time to put up or shut up. With all this said, thanks for all the supporters and to the people that put on the event. And a special thanks to Carey and Jeremy for there hard work and dedication to putting on the best event in the country!
