Back To Memphis We Go

After a fun filled Christmas break Jen and I are heading back to Memphis this arvo. I will add some photos soon from Christmas with the Haaser family.

Traveling to Fort Smith today

Jen and I are off on highway I-40 today heading into Arkansas. We are going back to Fort Smith to see my future in-laws for Christmas. I am pretty excited about something, but I will tell you that later this week. We are really excited about Christmas and being with the family, but I'm not too thrilled about being around all those cats that seem to take over. Oh well, guess I'll take my allergy medication before I go.

From our family to yours, may you have a Merry Christmas and New Year. Stay safe out there because it can get crazy at times.

Uni finishes this week, but not work

So this is the final week of final exams at the U. of Memphis. All the kids are busy studying, partying and getting another semester out of the way. I am still trying to get a few of my Aussie athletes admitted into the University & it seems to be right there....well before something else pops up. I always get so confident that the international kids will be admitted but then something comes up, gets lost, or just plan needs to be updated. So this morning didn't start well, but improved as we got closer to practice. The guys and girls are all improving, but with the Christmas break starting at the end of the week I am a little nervous that they can keep up the training intensity. I would love them to come back in better shape & knock off some of the records.
Jen is fitting in much better at the high school. We just got back from a HS basketball game which was fun, but Munford lost dismally. I am back into running. I ran twice on the weekend and then hit another 55mins today. I should be getting in about 5-6 hours of running this week & slowly building up. I have a half marathon I'd like to win in March, so need to get in shape. :-)
