Elin's first Deadlifts after the last year of pregnancy, birth, and baby.

 

Baby Anuhea

Pregnant, again!

I will never forget my dear friend Elin stopping me on the side of the road after we had just dropped our kids off at school. She was in the car in front of me, we had just pulled out of the school driveway.She pulled her car over to the side, and of course I knew this was a secret signal that I too should also pull over because she probably had something to give to me like yummy paleo food she had cooked for me, or clothes that my kids might have left at her house or a present or something like that. She is so generous that she is always trying to give, give, give!

Well, that morning we got out of our cars, approached each other, and with tears welling up in her eyes she told me she was pregnant, again after having two boys in grade school already, having just settled into a gourmet chefs position at a private residence, getting deep into her CrossFit training, and approaching 40. Wow! I thought at that moment, if anyone can do this, ELIN CAN! And she DID!!!! She had Baby Anuhea 6 months ago and had been away from the gym for a while raising baby, but now she's BACK! YAY! Life, and Crossfit do go on, even with 2 kids and a baby in the house!
