Thankful

So many things to be thankful for. I had the privilege this year to spend some time with my wife's brother and his family. Of course this meant that we got to take some time off from work, travel across the country and allowed us the opportunity to spend some time just the two of us in Charleston before we made our way to their house for the holiday. I'm a lucky guy. And lately I have noticed that I've been frustrated with my fitness, or lack thereof, to date. Some quality time with family quickly reminded me that life is about so much more than fitness, races, etc. Of course this stuff makes me very happy and I want it in my life, but it is not everything in life.

So, I had a relaxing vacation that allowed me to get some quality r&r as well as some good run workouts in. I'm feeling more excited about this upcoming season now and looking forward to another VO2 max test next month. That gives me a few weeks to get ready. This VO2 max will not give me an accurate depiction of where I am from a fitness standpoint, but it will clue me into how out of shape I am :) It will also help to show how the new asthma medicine I'm on is working. It will also allow coach and I to set some goals for another test two months later.

Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday.
