Holy smokes...Since my last post I did a warm up/break in 30 mile ride on my new road bike. It was a great effort; lots of hills, and getting used to the gearing and pedals. What sucks is the damage that I did to my nether regions. I still can't 100% feel my privates. Suuuuck. I was pretty happy with my time and the guys that I'm riding with. One of them, Mark, is a friggin' dynamo and should probably tour with how strong he rides. *laughs* Our 370 mile coast ride, next month, should be pretty awesome!
Completed the Race the Reaper run last weekend. 5.1 miles, 1000 feet elevation, and 18 obstacles. It was totally awesome, and an ass kicker for me. A great first experience! I'm signing up for the Zombie Apocalypse run (at the end of the month) and plan on Warrior Dash, and Tough Mudder next year. Looking for a few other runs to participate in (meaning, every single one that I can find) and am seeing quite a few popping up. The folks running in them are simply an awesome group of people, and the after event is just as fun as the run. Hung out with a new batch of really nice and fun people that I had never met before. Very excellent experience!
Getting prepared for Drill Sergeant School right now. A lot of memory work, and a lot of physical too. The school is in a location with elevation, so I need to plan on running twice as far here, to try and make it there. I applied for Air Assault School today as well. Rappelling out of helicopters seems to be a damned good idea, in my book at least :) I love the badges, and the accomplishment of doing what a lot of my cohorts (civilian and soldier alike) don't do.
