As you know, Mal and I are head over heels in love with CrossFit. In fact, we love it so much, we visit CrossFit boxes and create our own travel WODs even when we’re on vacation.
So when the folks from The Trip Tribe and Destino Retreats contacted me about attending their “WODS & Paleo Retreat in Cabo,” I didn’t even need to think about my response. (It was YES, obviously!) Destino Retreats was launched last year by Ty Texidor and Tovah Rendlich, and they are excited to grow the CrossFit retreat concept.
And, of course, I wanted my favorite CrossFit partner (sorry, Kerrie!) to join me on this amazing adventure, so Mal will be coming along too. [Disclaimer: The Trip Tribe is covering the cost of my flight and “WODS & Paleo Retreat,” but, as always, the thoughts and opinions expressed on CNC are all my own. Mal and I will be paying for his flight and trip.]
A vacation that involves sun, beach, CrossFit, and Paleo meals? I still can’t wrap my brain around it. When I first saw the itinerary for the trip, I told Mal my head might explode with excitement. Haha! I seriously can’t comprehend the awesomeness of this trip. Ok, let me tell you more about it!

Amazing, right? I love that there are so many CrossFit WODs and activities planned, but there’s also plenty of free time to just relax and do our own thing.
OMG, I can’t wait! And Mal is just as pumped. This trip falls just a couple of weeks after our 5-year wedding anniversary, so it’s a great way to celebrate. CrossFit + Cabo is the perfect anniversary celebration for us!
*I know a bunch of you guys love CrossFit and, obviously, vacation as much as I do, so I worked out a discount with The Trip Tribe people to get you on board. From today until next Friday (6/21), you can get $100 off the price of the trip + $200 toward a future trip with The Trip Tribe. So the “WODS & Paleo Retreat in Cabo” will cost $1,400 (which includes hotel and food) + your flight, which isn’t too shabby considering everything you get. And, hello, it’s a CROSSFIT vacation in CABO! Awe-some!
