Day 5

Day 5

Well it was another partial bust. I got up and went to the temple first thing. Then I went to IHOP for an Activities Committee meeting to plan out as much of the year as possible. Then it was off to my parents house to quickly print off some choices for geocaching later that afternoon with Erica, Cambree, and Rick. That's where I ran into trouble. See the plan was to go quickly to my parents, then to the gym to get in my workout, and then home to change to go geocaching. While at my parents house their computer was being slow and my dad needed help opening some files. Since I work in IT, I usually get to help on those sorts of things. In the end I just didn't have enough time to get to the gym and be on time for caching. Caching was fun though. And later it was off to Stake Conference and then to a movie after. All in all, it was one of the best Saturdays that I've had since winter started last year. I love warn weather.

Day 4

Day 4

Well it was a little tough to get up this morning. It wasn't that I went to bed really late or anything. I just couldn't get to sleep. No matter how hard I tried I just could not do it. It took me almost an hour to fall asleep. Then I kept waking up. I woke up at 12:XX, 3:XX, and finally at 5:45. The last time was on purpose of course. So there I sat for a little bit until Erica called me to see if I was up. I told her I was so when I got off the phone with her it was time to get into action. It was around 6:10AM by then.

I got to SLCC pretty quickly(I live like 2 minutes away with good lights) and got going on the treadmill. I finished my workout and left. On the way home I bought some milk and water. Milk for cereal, and water to drink throughout the day. I felt pretty good considering I had played basketball last night and had to play pretty rough with some of them. But, it was still a really fun game. We lost by like 6 points, but they were the returning champions and if we played them again, I really think we could take them. 

Anyways, my body feels good and ready for tomorrows workout(5 miles on the bike). I just don't know when I'll fit it in. Oh well, it'll have to happen sometime.

Day 3 no go

Day 3 continued...

Well I went to work after having the slighty disappointing morning, and was super tired all day. I keep telling myself that I'll get used to getting up early. Well I was going to try to go swimming after work, but I came home and was so tired that I decided to take a nap. But, waking up around 9pm meant no swimming for me. I guess I'm just setting myself up for a great return on Friday. I get Thursdays off if there was any wondering.

Day 3 trouble

Day 3

Well it's 6:46 as I look at the clock and today is not off to a great start. I woke up at 5:45 so that I could be to the pool early, I even set out all my clothes, towel, jammers, and goggles so that I could just grab and go. Well, apparently they closed the South City Campus swimming pool. I got there and this really nice lady with the normal fitness center part got to break the news to the walking dead. So I came back home and tried to find out if I can go somewhere else with my one card, but it doesn't look good. So here I sit, trying to decide on what to do...

Day 2

Day 2 

Day 2 was not as bad as I thought it would be. I made it over to SLCC early and rode the stationary bike for about 20 mins/7 miles. But, I decided to stay out late the night before and that eventually hit me later in the day. I was tired at work and then later I had an Elder's Quorum game. We ended up playing with only 5 guys. It was rough. But, I did make it to bed at like 10:20.

Day 1

Ok, so today I started training for a sprint distance triathalon. Since this is kinda my journal, I've decided to post my thoughts and feelings for everyday of my training. Today was day 1. I have decided that there is no other way that I can do the tri without getting up early and sacrificing some evening activities. So...

Day 1

Started at 5:45 A.M. It was running today. I am using the couch to 5k program that I used last year for the running since I'm already a little ahead on that part. The toughest part about today was that I haven't gotten up that early in months, maybe even a year. It'll get better though. We shall see tomorrow. It's a 5 mile bike ride. :)

New Stuff

Well it looks as though I'm starting to fall into the old journal trap of starting one and then forgetting about it. But, I saw that it had been almost a month so I decided that I have to write at least something. So here is a list of anything new that I can think that is going on.

  • Elder's Quorum basketball started
  • Did a fireworks show up in Deer Valley for the World Cup
  • Went shooting twice
  • Went to the Jordan River Temple with my ward
  • Gave Big Frank his first bath since the start of winter
  • Got a new phone
  • Filed my taxes and got my return already
  • Played Rock Band a lot(way to much according to some people)
  • Went on a few dates
  • Learned how to make/help make a pinata
  • Went to watch the U of U Gymnastics

There's some other stuff, but I can't think of it right now(of course).
