“My name is Becky, and my wonderful husband and I are missionaries in
Nacala, Mozambique (Africa). My friend Joy (Missionary in Zambia) told
me about your site and I have been doing the workouts since November.
As a very busy Mom of 4, I love the quick and intense workouts. Here
is a picture of me and my youngest 2 on the roof of our house
overlooking a bay of the Indian Ocean…Who said missionary life had to
be suffering 🙂
The other picture has all 4 of my kiddos, Andrew age 10, Dylan almost 8, Kate 6, and Micah 3 1/2. I am a truly blessed Mama!!! (I often do your workouts the day after they post due to time difference and my crazy life, really appreciate your site!) Thanks, Becky”

I really wanted to run this workout outside this morning. I had to take my 16 year old daughter to school at 6:15 am. Unfortunately the gate to the HS track was locked so what is a mamma to do….I hopped the 9 ft. fence (some kids had strategically placed two garbage cans on opposite sides of the fence.) Such a rebel!
It was worth it.
Thanks for the great workoutJenni (and suggestion Jen M.) and early morning adventure. I did have an awful vision of myself getting hung up by shirt on the way back over the fence. Luckily I made it unharmed.

I don't have a treadmill and -30 Celsius is too cold to run outside, so I alternated between biking .5miles, doing 50 jumping jacks, and 100 butt kicks. Also switched between bpu, walk out pu, and lateral pu.
Thanks!

February 6, 2013 at 1:48 amDANG YOU, JEN! Kidding, I am so not a runner, but I wouldn't hate it if it happened 😉 I realized tonight that I prefer to work for time rather than rounds. Something about pushing to get done faster is much more motivating to me than going for a specific amount of time. But loving this group no matter what!! Thank you for doing this for us Jenni!
Wk2 Day 2: 4 rounds, but I did run about half of it, which is HUGE for me. All boy push ups.
Jenni says
February 6, 2013 at 1:51 amMissm23-

February 6, 2013 at 4:05 pm7 rounds, all boy PU's!
Runs were slow due to very hot!
Funny story from today:
So was out running, and wearing my "Crossfit Mamas" shirt, and I already know that the nationals think I am crazy (no one runs for "fun" here!), but I was getting some funny looks. Now, here in Mozambique the trade language is Portuguese, and the tribal language is Makhuwa. I was running by a school, where a group of Brazilians had come to help teach. Then it dawned on me… in portuguese, the word "Mamas" means "breasts"! I was wearing a shirt, with words across my chest that boldly announced to all who saw me that I had "CrossFit Breasts"!!! I had a good chuckle, and I am not sure I will be able to wear this shirt again around people that have Portuguese as a first language!

February 6, 2013 at 6:53 pmBecky – that is hilarious! I didn't know that means breasts in Portuguese! I have 3 members in my family that speak Portuguese so that is good to know 😉

February 6, 2013 at 6:56 pmIn response to "blueyezcryin"
There are all different kinds of missionaries, and different ways to go about it. Our missionwork consists mostly of sharing God's Word and the good new of salvation through Jesus! We also help a bit with community health and development since we work with a very poor people in a 3rd world country. For us, it is something that God called us to do, and something we could never do in our own strength. Even though we live in a beautiful area, there are still a lot of difficulties, and a lot that we have given up. We are only here because we know that this is where God wants us. We are with the International Mission Board, and supported by churches. If you want to know any more info, feel free to contact me by email, globalnomadfam@gmail.com Thanks for the interest!
