In CrossFit the top of the "fitness pyramid" recommends you play new games, try new sports ... essentially put your fitness into play outside of your comfort zone. This could be something like trying netball or playing in a local game of football (soccer) but it also could be something smaller and much more subtle. Right before me, served on a silver platter, was an opportunity to put my fitness to the test.

It's when things don't go according to plan you learn the most. For a place where nothing works as it "should", there is quite a bit to learn.

Everybody has their "why." Why Africa? Hear Nolan's story on what lead him to Africa for 3 weeks.
