Today is a great Day!

I have been training pretty hard that past few weeks. One of the reasons why I have been lacking on my journal but I have some spare time to catch up on it. I have been working hard with my brother and a friend Marty (fit werx 2 owner) we have been getting ready for a half ironman in June. There is one thing that I have learned about myself over the past few years...I have to be training for something! I was always looking for a race or triathlon or it was to get ready for the police academy. There always had to be something. I realized something very important the other day when 4 Oakland Police Officers were killed in the line of duty. I am training for more than a race, I am training for life. I know that I can't stop a bullet or anything like that but I can do whatever is possible to help give myself an edge.

The thing that I am training for now is make sure that I can make my body and mind as strong as possible so that I will be able to handle whatever God throws at me. A couple of months ago I was kind of in rut. I was given the news that I might have cancer. I had to have a few tests and the waiting was the worst. Luckily, all was clear and I was given a clean bill of health. Today my wife and I found out that we are having another son. I will have two boys! Training will continue for them. I know that I have to keep priorities inn check and stay focused on the task in front of me...every day is great day!
