Back at it

Back to blogging! Its been a while since my last post. With so many things going on, I had to prioritize the use of my time and cut a few things out. Unfortunately, blogging and Toastmasters were a few of those things that had to be put on hold. I'm looking forward to get back at it now that things have settled down. As far as the half marathons, they went pretty well. I did the Miami Half marathon in 1:48 and 3 weeks later I did the Ft. Lauderdale Half Marathon in 1:56. All in all I was fairly pleased.

Winter training with Football went very well! We had some astounding results in the 6 week period that I had before Spring Ball. We are just finishing up spring ball now with our Spring Game being this Saturday, April 23.

My Training had taken a little bit of a hit as things were hectic and I was really only getting something in 2-3x per week. this past month I have been more consistent and have added some more weight training back into my program.
