I am training for a triathlon. To be honest, I am not sure my knee can handle a triathlon. Mile 1.5 of my run tonight I felt this horrible clicking so I had to slow down and head home. But regardless- it is the goal. Right now I am lifting weights for an hour, four to five days a week. I run only once or twice, swim twice a week, and bike whenever I can. It's already been a successful two weeks (well, not the running)... but I'd love to do a sprint triathlon in the next twelve months. Kokopelli is in September in St. George- that is the tri that Jason is training for right now. That feels REALLY soon to me- but we'll see!
Spring term is looking something like this- study for anatomy, study for the BOC, workout, play the piano. Those are the main four things that fill my days. It's actually quite wonderful- it leaves plenty of time to be with Jason, watch movies, and attempt new recipes. And I keep trying to convince myself that studying anatomy with "House" on will help. I will let you know how that goes.
The BOC, to clarify, is the "Board of Certification" exam to become a Certified Athletic Trainer (ATC). Basically, it tests everything I've worked for for the past 2 years. It's a big deal. An EXPENSIVE big deal. And I MUST pass it in June so I can work as a graduate assistant in August. No pressure, right? If you want to read more about what an Athletic Trainer actually does, click on the underlined text. Yep- I am shamelessly promoting my profession. And so is your local legislature. Athletic Trainers are a necessity in organized sports- especially high schools, colleges, and professional sports. More and more cities are requiring a full-time Athletic Trainer in their schools. That is GOOD news for me and the job outlook!
And finally- today we bought the wood to build our bookshelves and tv stand! I am SO excited that Jason wants to build them. I think it will be absolutely wonderful. The wood is gorgeous.
Tomorrows agenda? Bike ride, study for the BOC, BYU Rugby game with the Hepworth's, stain the end tables, and swim.
