CrossFit Endurance Certification Class Day 1

I am taking the class at CrossFit Reignited in Wilmington, NC, which is a newer box (opened in March 2013). It's a great location for the class, as the gym has a significant amount of room and equipment. In short, it's an awesome box; they even have a sauna for their members to use.

There are 10 of us taking the class, and we range from triathletes, to marathoners, to just CrossFit coaches looking to add endurance programs at their boxes: really a great group of people.

Now what really matters, the class itself:

For me, this class itself is best summarized as "super valuable." Not only is it going to greatly help me with my own training, form, and development as a runner, it is also going to be very helpful in assisting others with their form and endurance goals. Great class so far!!!

The drills, video recording, and frame-by-frame running form analysis was especially helpful, particularly when you see how much room there is for improvement. The simulated coaching session was also pretty cool, as it really helped me begin to see exactly what I am looking for in proper running form.
