Employed again and triathlon plans

First, some great news: MY DAD GOT A JOB TODAY!!! He got an offer from Red Robin restaurant for a management position and accepted. He starts next Tuesday and is really excited : ) It's such a relief for our family. Thank you SO MUCH for all your prayers, positive thoughts, and support. I'm so thankful to have such great friends! I'm proud of my dad finding another job in just 6 weeks, especially with this economy. My dad is an extremely hard worker and always finds a way to provide for his family no matter what, and I love him very much.



Haha, 1990:


I'm also excited because I found a perfect training guide for the mini-triathlon: "8 Weeks to your First Mini Triathlon: Beginner Plan." Yup, that has everything I need in it! Since the race is August 15th, I'll be starting this mid-June.

Boot camp class totally kicked by butt tonight. We did so many arm moves I feel like they're going to fall off. Glad to do 'em though : ) I still got the heat blisters on my shins during class, they look so gross. My boss (again, she does marathons & all that jazz so she knows what she's talking about) said she gets them sometimes too. She said that when you tan, it kills off the top layer of your skin so the bubbles are sweat being trapped under the dead skin cells. Makes sense, because this never happened to me before prior to my Florida trip.

Did a good job with my eating today, right around 1,500 calories.

I never quite know how to "end" these blogs.

The End.
