If you're not familiar with the Benchmark Girls, let me introduce you to them. They are a group of gals who will absolutely kick your butt, so don't mess with them.
In all seriousness though, they are a set of Crossfit workouts that are meant to be basic benchmarks for you to track progress with. Take a look at some of them. If I'm not mistaken, Angie was my first ever CrossFit workout, and boy did it gas me. I wish I could remember my time...well not really :-)!

There is something about benchmarks that motivate me. When I realize what my baseline is, and I am able to come back and improve against that baseline, I feel a great sense of accomplishment. I'm hoping that in a few months, my times and results for each of these workouts will improve.
Having something to work towards and against...now that's enough motivation for me to keep going.
