It’s currently 11:09PM and I’m sat at my computer. Been up since 6:30am and haven’t had a moment of rest all day, it’s been go go go. That’s been the story the past few months. With a condensed NHL schedule (Jets missed playoffs this year) and my increased triathlon training, freelance projects and a few minutes to prepare meals for myself, I’m sometimes pulling 15-16hr days.

Why? I wonder sometimes… Great question. There’s a time to make hay while the sun shines and I’m taking great efforts to protect the time spent training for my triathlon which benefits me both socially, physically and mentally. Just not financially. So in a way, I’m working to afford doing triathlon, funny.

I participated in my first ever 5K race. I aimed for a sub 25-minute run and came in at 24:19 which was better than I had anticipated. Then, just the other day I ran a 5K in 23:28. So I’m getting faster which is so cool to see. I’m considering signing up for a Half Marathon this summer, just to redeem myself from when I wasn’t able to participate because of COVID. Not to race, but to show up and do something good for me.

I currently own 5 bicycles, so there’s that too. Each one serves a purpose and I hope to, at some point this summer, mount them to the wall and include them as part of the decor of the room. Just need an empty day where I can focus on this.

I hinted at a “big announcement” in my previous Now post, which was that I worked on camera at the Winter Olympics this past year. See some pics on my photos page.

All in all, it’s been busy. But I enjoy busy.
