On my way home for the week (!), I stopped at Five Points CrossFit in Corte Madera for a workout. When I pulled into the parking lot, there was a giant regular called Five Points Fitness. Confused, I went in and asked where the CrossFit gym was. Turns out it's in the back. After making my way over to the back, I was pleasantly surprised with a completely outdoors CrossFit gym! Suns out, guns out all day!
While in San Rafael for work, I'd like to check out all the gyms within a 5-mile radius and believe it or not, there's quite a few of them. After coming off of Nationals, I figure it's a good time to squeeze in a CrossFit workout here and there. Last Friday, I visited Pacheco Valley CrossFit in south Novato! I actually was going to visit them back in May around their grand opening, but the timing was off so I'm glad I got to make the visit this time around!
A few weeks ago, Fuel for Fire sent me some samples of their Fuel Packs. Funny thing is, around the time they contacted me, I was literally about to purchase some to take to Nationals with me but didn't quite fully execute on that. A good friend of mine loves them and convinced me to try them out. So when they contacted me, I was stoked to try them out.
After weeks and weeks in San Rafael, I've been meaning to make my way over to the original and first TJ's Gym, established in 2002! Man, at that time I just started high school and had no interest in exercising. Thing have obviously changed. Though I traveled a lot leading up to Nationals, I didn't visit many CrossFit gyms as our Nationals cycle was quite intense. Anyway, I've been to the Novato location a couple years ago and absolutely loved it, so I was curious what the other locations would be like.
