Becoming An Athlete

Today I started with my new fitness coach at Eugene Crossfit. The plan is to work with him 3-4 times a week. I am officially in training for the Eugene Half-Marathon in May, which is 13.1 miles. We worked on shoulders today with shoulder presses, pull-ups and push-ups. Plus, there were a lot of squats thrown in for good measure. I'm going to an early morning class, 7 am, so it's just me and a couple others. It's cool to get that much individual attention and also the tight camaraderie was almost instantaneous.

Today I also started on my checklist for the grad school application. I think there should be a degree given for anyone who can successfully jump through all the hoops required just to GET IN. :)
