Lazy or Crazy???

I just saw a guy I used to play basketball with, he's riding his bike home to Toronto from Brampton 35km. I suddenly feel like a lazy bum!

Well I plan on setting up my weight set in my garage tomorrow, now I have motivation. There is a fitness room at my work that I use regularly. I also have a YMCA membership which I do not, but my kids do go for swimming lessons. I hope that despite my schedule changes I will be able to get regular workouts between my three options.

Me and my buddy Scott are planning on entering a 10km race in October so I will be definitly trying to run a lot over the next month. I live close to my work so I will ride my bike to work, weather permitting.

Hopefully that will take me from lazy to crazy!

Sundays

Well my Sundays are about to change!
I have been working Sundays since last November when I started my current job as a transit bus driver, but during my next crew (8 weeks of work) I will have Fridays and Sundays off.
This should be better for spending quality family time. There was a trade off for getting such great days off, I work evenings from 5:30pm until about 2 am! So I get sundays with the family and not really any other days. Oh well in 8 weeks it'll be something new.

I'll say I've been down lately and have no good reason. My wife Julia has been ill, but otherwise I have been doing well. I have become an official full-time Transit Operator and will now have benefits and vacation time. I had been a temporary operator, as is the process to get to full-time. I will have spent a year basically on probation. So work is going well.
