Final Post!

Well, after many years of updating this blog weekly it is time to call it quits. I have moved on to the next stage of my life and have set a huge goal for myself. I thought it would be best to start a new blog dedicated to my new goal. Please follow me on my new blog at www.the-ironman-mission.com

Thanks for all the reads and comments over the years and looking forward to hearing from you on the new blog!

On Vacation

Well the time has arrived, I am officially on vacation for two weeks. It will begin with a few days of getting caught up on life, and chores, and then I will be heading to Europe for 10-11 days. I can't wait!!

Last week I was traveling in the US, Wichita Kansas specifically. It is a nice city but it was hot. It was over 100 degrees every day I was there. I did manage to run a couple of times in the heat, it felt good. The bad news was I ate out for four days. I tried my best to order the better things on the menu but that didn't always work out well. Getting on the scale Monday will not be pretty.

And imagine next week's weigh in, after having been on the cruise for a week, yikes!!!

I signed up for my first official 1/2 marathon this past week as well. It is on labor day weekend so it will be here in no time at all. I am not ready for it yet, I will have to do some training while on vacation!

Stay safe!

Vacation is approaching.

Our trip to Europe is quickly approaching and I can't wait for it to get here. I have a business trip this week which is unfortunate but when Friday comes I will be off for two full weeks!

I had a good week of training and capped it off with another victory in a sprint triathlon. It was my last tri of the season so now I have to wait and see how the final season standings fall out. There are a couple more events to come but I can't make it to either of them. Brittany also ran in a 10k race at the same event and had a great run for a personal best!

Tomorrow is a holiday for me in Canada so I am looking forward to that as well! I hope to get through a book I just started before my vacation begins next week.

The excitement is never ending!!!
