Looking at the life of me.

Weekend Adventure Race

// July 20th, 2009 // No Comments » // Goals, Mountain Bike

Third adventure race of the year is complete and it was great.  Over the weekend myself and a few co-workers decided at taking on the  Cornhusker State Games adventure race at Platte River State Park.  The was short (2-4 hours) but very challenging.  All in all it ended up being around 4 miles of running, 4 miles of biking, 2 crazy team challenges, and a paddle boat adventure.

In a nutshell the day was great, the team did great and I’m feeling really good about how my running and biking are going.

Next step is the XTERRA Triathlon @ Branched Oak Lake and possibly the Wild Hares 12-hour Adventure Race … who can teach me how to swim!

The Journey Begins

// April 27th, 2009 // No Comments » // Goals, Mountain Bike

In the past 4 months I have done many good things for myself and for my family.  I have switched jobs at Farm Credit, Got back in the gym, started a lifelong diet, and lost 42 lbs.

Great way to start the year off.  Now it’s time to prove to myself that I can do big things in this world.  My goals for the next 5 years… Give or take a year.

1) Be happy in what I do
2) Race competitively in the Nebraska Mountain bike Series – Details
3) Take the family to see Mountains
4) Compete in the Angry Cow Adventure Race Series – Details
5) Take the family to see the Ocean
6) Run a Half Marathon

Who is with me? Anyone want to donate money to the Kevin needs money for his dreams foundation?
