6 Days until Mid Tour

Well I'm officially a week away before I fly out.  If you can't tell I'm a little excited.  We are down to two tread mills here which is awesome...  sarcasm!  It's amazing when so much of our career is based on fitness yet we only have TWO amazing treadmills and it's the middle of winter, ice everywhere so we can't run outside...  Man this place sucks!  But we have 8 stationary bikes because that's important... sarcasm once again.  OK, I've got it out of my system.  Until next time...

8 Days until Mid Tour

Well we're getting closer and things seem to get a little tougher.  I'm having a little trouble getting everything squared away with my leave (I'm not in the system) and getting down to Busan (I don't have a ride at the moment).  I will get everything figured out even if I have to go down to Busan the day before and sleep outside the airport.  I'll make it happen.  I got in my first run of the week and I'm looking forward to duplicating last week.  Is this week over yet!  Until next time...

11 Days until Mid Tour

Another week in the books and I'm ready to move on to my last full week of work before I get to come home.  It should be a nice, quiet weekend.  I'm not trying to go outside unless I have to because it is freezing out there!  I got one more run this week and it will be a 6 day run week.  Good stuff.  Until next time...

12 Days until Mid Tour

It was cold today.  Now normally it wouldn't be so bad BUT we had rail cars today so I spent the first 4 hours of my day sitting on top of a rail car in the cold and wind.  It was yucky!  I survived and I only have to do one more set of rail cars before I get to come home.  I have to spin it in a positive light or else it will make me bitter because we're not even supposed to be filling rail cars.  Ho-hum, and life goes on.  I got in my work out today which makes me very happy because normally after climbing all over rail cars I am less than enthused to climb on a tread mill for an hour.  Onwards and upwards!!!

13 Days until Mid Tour

I'm officially under two weeks now.  I am starting to get excited but I'm keeping myself in check.  If I think about how close it is these next two weeks will feel like two years.  So I'm keeping myself busy with work and the gym...  But it IS getting close and I can't wait!!!  I got in a pretty decent workout today.  After my run I really didn't feel like lifting BUT since I'm only lifting 3 days a week I needed to get it in and I did.  Now I'm slothing around my apartment trying to find the energy to make me something to eat.  Go hard or go home right?!?  Until next time...

14 Days until Mit Tour

Well HELLO JANUARY!!!  I can finally say I'm coming home this month and that is exciting!  In case you're wondering how I come up with 14 days instead of 15 let me clarify.  I don't count the current day and I don't count the ACTUAL day I fly since that would technically be day 0.  Maybe I'm just clarifying it for myself because I get confused sometimes.  Today was a cardio day.  I'm sticking to lifting Mon, Wed, Fri. and running Mon-Sat.  That's the new years schedule as of right now.  I hope everyone had a great New Year's Eve and New Year's Day.  As for myself, I'm glad it's over with and I get to go back to work to help these last couple of weeks fly by.  Until next time...
