Full Time

Well, it's 10:50pm and I just got out of the shower. Sitting at the computer enjoying a bowl of Greek Yogurt with a touch of honey and a double espresso. Wow, you're thinking how is this guy ever going to get to sleep? The answer is easy, I had a full day and one measly double espresso has no chance of keeping this guy awake. I am often asked how I manage to get my training in, and to be honest I sometimes wonder myself. So, I thought I would give everyone a little insight into my day.

5:45am Julia is crying and Allison has gotten up with her all night, so after a little nudge from Allison I hop out of bed to check on her. I slide the pacifier into her mouth and all is quiet.

5:55am Out the door to the pool for a my swim workout. 1,900meters, felt good and a good start to the morning

7:15am Back home, whip up some scrambled eggs and toast for Emma, Molly and myself.

7:50am In the shower and out the door for work by 8:30

Today I taught 6 lessons and played 6 holes with one of my students

5:35pm Back home, cook up an awesome dinner. Steamed Jasmine rice, beef teriyaki and broccoli. A home run with everyone

7:00pm Upstairs, the girls hop in the shower while I give Julia a bottle. My awesome wife is downstairs doing the dishes. That's our deal, I cook she cleans. I love her, because I hate cleaning.

8:00pm Girls are in bed

8:30pm Hop on the bike downstairs for a 90 minute ride while watching the Caps. Bummer they lost, awesome game though.

10:15pm Back in the shower

10:30pm A bowl of yogurt, espresso and few words for my faithful followers.

THAT'S A GREAT DAY

I must admit, there is absolutely no way I could do it without the support of my wife. She gets up at night to feed Julia and runs the house like no body's business, while still working full time. I married extremely well.

So, my advice to anyone thinking of getting into this great obsession. Make sure you have the support of your family, it's the only way you can do it.

Now, I am off to bed. If the rain stops I will be out the door by 6am for a quick run before the house is awake. Hope everyone is well.
