The CrossFit difference, after just a month...

As of tomorrow, I'll have spent a month doing serious, regular CrossFit workouts.  It's part Tough Mudder training, part challenge, and part experiment.  My story won't ever be as dramatic as some.  But I have already hit some accomplishments I'm pretty proud of.

The Modern (Gentle)Man

For someone who doesn't buy into TV shows until they've proven to be worthwhile, I was uncharacteristically intrigued by How to Be a Gentleman.  Maybe it was partly a residual affection for Johnny Drama.  But mostly, I was drawn by the promise (well, possibility) of a new look at classic questions of what makes a man -- something I've pondered far before it became a fad with this television season.
