My CrossFit Equipment
I purposefully started out slow with CrossFit. At the beginning I wasn’t sure whether I’d like it at all, so I avoided any upfront investments in gear. For the first two months I just worked out in running shoes and my old soccer things.
My CrossFit Travels
One of the things I like the most about CrossFit is its concept of Drop-Ins, the ability to join any CrossFit box on a class-by-class basis. There is hardly a month where I’m not out of town for a conference or meetup and so far I’ve always been able to find a box that was reasonably close. It is along the lines of what a “regular” fitness chains would offer where you can use any location of theirs if you’re a member. And I consider it a huge benefit.
I’m in Brussels, Belgium for a conference this weekend and of course I had to visit Manneken Pis, the symbol of Brussels folklore. Today they celebrated the Manneken Pis Feast, so he wore the costume of the Order of Friends of Manneken Pis.
