What might I possibly be up to after this summer? Same ole everyday stuff as everybody else- Work, class, etc. Been staying busy with college classes, a new job, and a switch up of workout routine.
The start up and running of my biscotti 'business' sparked my interest into the business world- accounting, finance, stocks, etc. I made a switch from a science related major to business here recently, and am currently closing in on a 2-year associates from Arapahoe Community College. Didn't plan it- just so happened I took the required amount of hours needed for it. I'm going to end up going to the business school at University of Denver for my next few years of college, and hopefully major in business with an emphasis on accounting and/or finance. I'd also like to get my entreupeneurship certificate as well. Not sure how much I'll be able to fit in mountains/hiking here the next few years of classes!
With my next goal being the Boston Marathon 2016, I figured I'd give myself adequate rest/recovery time from the leadville 50 run before I start up marathon training, let alone boston marathon training! A qualifying time of 3:35 for my age group is attainable… but with speed work still so foreign to me, it personally is a little intimidating! Hoping to qualify anywhere from May-July 2015, so perhaps start up training in February. Currently- I've just been in the gym. Very few trail runs! I may fit one or two in on the weekend. But for now its just weights- building muscle (specifically leg muscle) to help out and prepare for whenever I start marathon training in February! Plus- a little extra quad will help out here on the slopes once ski season is here (Copper mountain… opening day Oct. 31st!)
I have a pretty amazing Thanksgiving and Christmas break planned… so I'm just trying to grind this month out (October) and make it to the end of November! Hurry up ski season!
