Asthma scores one

Today we were suppose to have a track meet had been rescheduled, but it was cancelled.That was bad and good. Bad, because I had to take the Spanish test and I'm pretty sure I failed. Good, because I wound up being all asthmatic for the day. I seriously could not breath, but get this; I had a perfect oxygen levels and there was no wheeze or anything. No reason for me not to be able to breath and yet I couldn't. Hopefully it doesn't happen again.

Since I decided I shouldn't go to track I ran errands instead. Pretty boring. Afterwards I ran over to the Armory, talked for a bit, then came home to work out. I didn't work out then, there wasn't enough time before dinner. The problem was I ate so much, I just had to walk it off. I walked it off right to Nate and Rachel's. I played with Cora, who was very excited to see me, and got her nice and hyped up before bed time. Nate loved that. While he tried to put her to bed I hung out upstairs with Rachel as she fed Nolan. He's so cute! He's also huge. He's only three months old, yet he's already wearing 6 month clothes. He's not fat per say, more oblong (he's father's words not mine!). It was Rachel's first day back at work (she's been on maternity leave) and she was just exhausted and went to bed asap. Nate and I talked for another hour-hour and a half as Nolan slowly nodded off. I like that they have always treated me as an equal, and not as a child. It makes me feel like I matter, and allows me to open up more. For example: Nate and I talked about Vietnam, and our views on it, we talked about college, home life, the reason's behind why we were/are motivated to go to college and succeed in life, what it really means to succeed in life. Things like that. Rachel and I talked about the band trip (both hers, and mine), engineering, the future, having children. Things like that.

Once I got home at a little past nine (about three hours after I had left),  I finally worked out. 31 minutes of strength and 10 minutes of cool down stretching. Not too hard, though thanks to asthma I was breathing hard early on.

Well it's back to hitting the books! Bio test tomorrow and MCA's Thursday and Friday! Not to mention projects and normal homework...

Good Bye and Good Night!

Timberman Triathlon

Okay, this one really is going to be short. I don't really have much to say besides what's about to be said. So....read on! First off do you know what a triathlon is? Or what the Timberman triathlon is? You don't? Let me explain then. A triathlon is where you swim, bike, and run. You're timed in each event and your transition time (how long it takes you to go from one event to the next) also counts against you. The Timberman is a triathlon held in Grand Rapids MN. It has a long course (mile swim, 26.2 mile bike, and a 10K run. But don't quote me on the bike) and a sprint course (1/3 mile swim, 13.1 mile bike, and a 5K run, but don't quote me on the bike again). It's a fun event put on every year and draws a nice crowd of people from every age and fitness level. I did the short course and this is how it went: Swim The swim was by far my worst event. I did it in my sports bra and spandex shorts (last year I did it in normal shorts and nearly lost them!...

Ummmm......YOLO??

[editor's note: this was actually like two weeks ago, I just hadn't published it] So yesterday we had our second outdoor meet, which was like our fifth meet overall, and it was, ummmm, interesting to say the least. It was really fun, it didn't even feel like an actual meet because it was just so fun. Oh, FYI there'll be a couple random pictures that have nothing to do with yesterday, I just wanted to share them. Though at the same time there'll be some from yesterday. Keep your eyes open and see if you can tell the difference, cause you probably will be able to. It's really not that hard. This is my life Screen shot this gem off of SkierSayWhat First of all, I didn't sleep at all Monday night. Not a freaking wink. I was up all night talking with Max about things that should've been talked about awhile ago, and getting advice/being all philosophical with Tyson, oh and snap chatting Autumn. Then they all eventually went to bed, Max was the last one ...

First distance run in awhile...

KJ was gone today because of the Elite meet, and so he left us with a workout and put Amber in charge. Amber is a student at the college studying to become a physical educator  She's almost, but not quite, an assistant sprinting coach.  Some pictures from the Elite meet. Courtesy of KJ: The workout was just 4 laps with 100 yrd sprints on the straightaways, 10 100s with 40 second rests between. The weight room was locked and since Amber isn't an official coach she doesn't have a key and we couldn't workout. I don't think anyone was sad. That was the earliest the girls sprint team has ever finished. Usually we're the last ones there, because KJ just talks and talks. I decided that since I haven't really been training for the half-marathon well at all since track started that I should probably go for a run. Start gathering some miles up. WORST IDEA EVER, actually that's a lie. I've had worst ones. Like working out with Nick. I...
