March 5th – End Of A Great Week
I really enjoy Fridays. Work was awesome. This new job carries a lot more responsibility and a few more hours but I am having a great time. I like that I am working on more complex problems and am a major part of something.
I had a great workout as well. I was tired toward the end of the day and wasn’t really feeling like going but I forced myself into my running shoes and out the door. I was able to run a faster three miles than yesterday. I am up to 5.5mph (woo hoo). I realize that I still really slow but it’s not as slow as yesterday.
Unfortunately, I am back on the road next week so I will have to figure out how to keep my momentum going. This time I am heading to Detroit. The company I work for has a technology partner in the area so I am flying out to meet their development team and work on an integration project. I am excited to work on the project and I am excited to visit a new city.

December 9th – Check This Out
I haven’t written in a couple of days. Mostly because I haven’t been working out. I am trying to force myself to move my workout to the morning so I am not allowing myself to hit the gym in the evenings anymore. So far, this is not working. I am feeling pretty bad about it so tomorrow is the day. My whole day is better when I work out in the morning and I know that if I can force myself to do it for a week, it will become routine.
Now for the check this out part.. I spent the day after Thanksgiving with my brother and his family. While I was there I took a lot of pictures of my nephew Jamison. Along with the pictures, I took this video. Isn’t he cute!

December 1st – Not Much Time
I don’t have a lot of time this morning. Had an awesome Thanksgiving and a really great weekend. Running outside, in the rain, was really cool but it took its toll. I was out sick on Monday and am still not feeling very well this morning. I have a lot of work to catch up on so I came in to work today. I haven’t run since Thursday morning. I am going to hit the gym after work today and try to put in a mile or two. My cold isn’t really in my chest this time so I should be good for at least a mile and a half. I will post again this evening after the gym. I really hate writing a post and not increasing my mileage counter.

November 26th – Giving Thanks
I went for an early run this morning. I really like running in the morning and I really like running outside. It was cool and a little wet this morning as I hit the trail outside my Dad’s place. The first half mile was a bit cold and I was running a bit faster than I should have but at the mile point I had warmed up and I started to relax and run easy. It was a great run!
During my run I had some time to think. Thanksgiving is the traditional day to stop and think about the things and people you are thankful for. I have always participated in this tradition but until this past year I had no idea what it meant to be truly thankful. These past few months have opened my eyes to the fact that I am blessed to have wonderfully supportive family and friends. You truly have saved my life and are all in my heart this Thanksgiving.
