Rumor has it there's no crying in Crossfit. That might be so, but there's certainly crying during rest at Crossfit. At least there was for me yesterday. I started the first set with a little too much intensity and started an asthma attack during the first rest. The tears started rolling down my face with frustration. I'm so tired of not being able to breathe. But each set, I got back up and did what I could, modifying intensity as I needed to survive the four minutes of work. Thank goodness for Jameela cheering me on and Murph checking in on me. My mantra will just have to be:
