I'm at CrossFit Tameside.
How did you get on? You like it?
Great North Run on Sunday - I'm going to do my CrossFit Induction after my legs recover (if my legs recover).
I'm kinda nervous about the whole thing - because although I'm in the aerobic form of my life (40s 5k PB last weekend), and I've got legs like tree trunks, I don't have any upper body strength at all. But then I suppose that it's the same for everyone in the beginning.

Oh yeah, and you'll use a lot less upper body strength than you might imagine.
Proper strength comes from the hips. You'll see what I mean.

Well that comment has certainly piqued Mrs Borofergie's interest in my impending CrossFit training...
