15 Days until Mid Tour

I just finished up my last workout for the year.  All in all it's been a pretty good year.  I'm looking forward to 2013 and getting life back to normal this summer in Las Vegas.  My main goal for this coming year is to run 100 miles per month.  I want to stay realistic with my goals this year and I think that's a feasible goal.  My aspiration is to run the Las Vegas Marathon next December.  If I focus on my mileage and getting prepared to run that marathon then my weight will come down, I will have to eat better, and everything will have to come together for me to make the cut off of 4:30.  We will see.  Those are my personal goals.

Heather and I wrote down some goals we would like to work on as a family:
Spiritual- Attend the temple once a month
Personal- Date night once a month
Health- Cook at home 6 nights a week (Sat. will be free day)
Family- FHE/ Family night weekly
Financial- SAVE MONEY!!!

19 Days until Mid Tour

Well I skipped a day yesterday like a big fatty but I'm over it and moving on.  I was back in the gym today to get my run in.  For some reason sitting in the truck driving all day really takes my energy away.  And we spend a lot of time in that stupid truck!  Well I'm finally in the teens until I get to come home for a visit.  I can't wait.  Until then, I'll keep myself busy running and lifting.  Until next time...

21 Days until Mid Tour

Well Christmas came and went without incident.  I'm glad that this day is behind me because it's hard being away from my family.  I look forward to January when I can spend some time with my family.  That's my late Christmas present.  I did get in my workout today even though I tried super hard not to go work out.  I basically watched movies all day until 730PM and finally dragged my fat butt to the gym.  Better late than never I guess.  Until next time...

22 Days until Mid Tour

Well I got run Christmas Eve run in early.  I think that's the best way to do it because if I don't go early I seem to always talk myself out of working out on my days off.  Anyways, I'm trying to get through these next two days as quick as possible.  I'm ready for January!

24 Days until Mid Tour

Well I wrapped up my week with a run.  That makes 6 in a row of 60 minute runs.  I haven't did that in awhile.  I will have to keep it up because my weight seems to be pretty consistent at 255 lbs.  As long as I'm getting in my workouts that number shouldn't creep up...  I hope.  I hope everyone has a great weekend.  Until next time...

25 Days until Mid Tour

Well Friday is here and it's the 21st and the world didn't end AGAIN.  The one thing that did happen today is snow fell.  I was told that it normally snows in Daegu twice a year.  Most of the time it's freezing rain or rain.  Well we're not even through December and this is the THIRD time it's snowed.  It looks like it will be a very wet winter here in South Korea.  I'm heading into a 4 day weekend and Christmas is right around the corner.  I'm looking forward to having it over with so I'm that much closer to being home with my family in January.  Not too much time left before mid tour.  I'm keeping myself as busy as I can to help time go by faster.  I don't think I've ever been this excited for January. 

Come on January!

26 Days until Mid Tour

Made a quick trip down to Gimhae today.  So I didn't get to go through out a week without a trip but at least it was a short one.  Another week is almost in the books which is always good.  Bring on Christmas!
