Zen Sailors join the local CrossFit Community 🤪
Since our boat works were gonna take longer than expected, we had to settle in to life on land for a few months. So guess what- we signed up for the local CrossFit Classes 5 days a week 🤯
For a decade, my CrossFit crazy friends have been trying to convince me to join them. I managed to resist 😎 Being in a sweaty indoor studio with loud Metallica music playing and dudes pumping iron is not my thing!! I prefer outdoor activities in nature - like hiking , swimming, running , kiting and outdoor yoga!
Also I believe that this high intensity workout is not what I need - don’t want to fuel that pitta 🔥 in me🥴
And Seb - well he just doesn’t even consider this kind of activity 😂
I was totally surprised when he floated the idea of joining the classes - his reason - the locals there seem cool! I had to say yes. And it turned out to be the best decision ever. For the community!
From the first day on , people were so kind and welcoming to us. And since then we look forward to the classes to meet our new friends. Muscles 💪🏾 are just a great consequence… (I’m still not a fan of those high intensity drills!)
Nov- Dec we were supposed to be sailing ⛵️ to the marquesas islands and here we are building muscles in Raiatea! It’s joyful to see that the present moment is bringing us new friends and experiences even though it was totally not planned. This is life and it’s awesome 😊
