Crystal Cresent Hike

A bunch of us from work have been going on Hikes all summer, I am lucky that are shift gets along so well. I know that were are other shifts that are at each others throat all the time.
So we went for the hike, the first part is through the woods then after about 30mins to come out to the shore line, then the rest of the hike is along the shore as you'll see it's a rock fun hike.

This is me doing Yoga postions at the top of the Hill, as you can see I lack the form!

This Is my bubby Ash, I got a ride out to the Hike with him, he's one of the really good guys at work thats always fun working with...

This is a picture as you may be able to make out of a naked guy, at the end of the Hike it goes past a nude beach area, also it was alittle weird there were naked guys walking in the woods and others sitting around, I think its kinda a "pickup" area.....

Besides that it was an awesome hike!

Got my Bike....

Well I got my Bike today,

The Bike I got was the Trek 1000 I paid $350.00 for it and got a trainer, spare seat,tube and manual with it.

I was alittle torn between the Trek 1000 and Trek 2300, but what made up my mine was that I jumped too late on the Trek 2300.

So my parents went on a driving vacation this week and on the way back they picked up the bike, they dropped it off and I made them supper.

I was looking over the bike and it looks great, the tires still have the rubber knobs on it, she bought it 3 years ago and only used it once, So I figure I better get it tuned up before I use it...

Swimming been great (long way to go tho), my running is improving, so I'm looking forward to getting on my bike....

Going for a Hike tomorrow, chat later

Slow

It's been a busy crazy night, alittle slow now at 4am...spent the frist part of the night on the bridge.

So before work tonight I headed to the pool hoping my second time there would go better....

I felt confident as I walked in the pool, today I knew where the changeroom was.....

I got changed ino my sexy swimtrunks and headed out.. The pool was alittle busy, as I walked across the pool a lane was calling my name, the lanes were marked with yellow signs... The lane I was drawn to was labeled Slow.......

Well I have a new goal.... Step up from the slow lane to the medium lane.

Well back to work.... Later

I went swimming.......

It was a crazy day at work, I was non-stop all day alot of crazy people out today.....


As I put in my last post was I was was sitting in the pool parking lot nervous, it has been over a year since I went swimming and that was only once, and before that was a long time.

So I was alittel nervous as I walked into the pool, had to ask where the changing room was...Once I changed and was taking a shower before I headed in, there was another guy beside my and I felt I needed to talk to him and tell him I was new to swimming, good guy to talk too....lol Once I started to never stopped gabbing..

So I walked out to the pool, at the same time of the lane swims the other half of the pool is a exercise class mainly filled by older ladies with a few young cuties... So I was thinking they'd be laughing as I drowned later...lol

SO went over to the lane on the farside of the pool and eased in, water was nice, the first few laps were filled with nervous energy and I did the breast stroke, as I got alittle more comfortable I switch over to the freestyle.

I was surprised that I did ok with the freestyle, I found at first I was alittle tense and as I told myself to relax I performed better..... But I did realize that I needed to get my lungs back in shape, it's not the same as running cardio.....

Back again at the pool tomorrow morning.

Going for a dip!!

So I'm writing this post while I sit in the pool parking lot, I came up last night and got my membership but it was crazy busy so I passed on going swimming.

It's been about a year since I went swimming so I'm alittle nervous about going and looking like a fool...

But I have to start somewhere, as a teenager I got all my swimming levels but was never an overly strong swimmer.

But I need to bite the bullet and jump in, i'll only look out of place for a while then I'll get things going....

I'll let you know how it goes later,

Run and Swim.....

(pic of heidi in her last marathon)

Well, I had about a week off running, my physiotherapist told me to take it easy, so I did but enough of that.

Heidi was going out for a long run because her half Marathon is fast approaching, so once we got to the 2.5 km mark she kept going and I turned around and headed back, the first 2.5km was alittle faster then normal, I was afraid it may gas me for the finish, but it ended up helping, I finished the 5km with a time of 26:23


My best time since I started to get back in shape, Looks like my body is responding to this fitness thing! lol

Tonight at 6:30pm the pool has lane swims so I'll head down there and do a few laps..

Down to 2 Bikes....

So after getting fitted properly, I have narrowed my search down to 2 of the 3 bikes, the Newer bike was too big for me.

So it's now down to:

Bike #1 2001 - Trek 2300 - Rolf Vector pro wheels and Shimano Ultegra components, 2001 edition, 56 cm. The bike was crashed so some damage tot he shifters. - $500.00

Bike #2 2001 Trek 1000 with Sora components, bike in perfect condition, only used a few times in the last 3 years, The owner is throwing in her trainer (alittle old, but works great) - $350.00

What do u think? I was leaning towards Bike #2 because it was alittle cheaper, and in better shape, and it had the trainer

Wedding is over....

So yesterday my little sis got married,

It was a great day filled with alot of laughs and a few tears. I shed a few tears during the ceremony seeing how happy my sister was and how great her day was.

I had the job of an usher/bouncer keeping people off the center isle, so that felt like home to me. I was in charge of opening the doors to the hall as the bride maids and then the bride walked in, after the wedding we went and did family photos then the wedding party went off and did others ones, I went along to help out however I could, and they are going to have awesome pics.

At the dinner, I was about the4th person to get up and give a speech, I was trying not to ruin my reputation as a cop by crying but I let a few tears go. ( It is my baby sister)

The groom came up after the reception and told me my speech was 1 of the 2 that made him cry, we share a different relationship where we are good friends, but since my sister and him broke up a few times we had to put our friendship on hold as I told him the things he had to hear!

But now I couldn't be more happy for the two of them,

Love ya Adam and Beth

Wedding Bells....

Well today my little sis is getting married,

Just for fun I decided to cut my hair and have a MoHawk, I did it yesterday and my sis flipped when she saw it, I told her I was keeping it, She said she'd call mom if I didn't cut it, So I left it till this morning, when I woke up the girls were heading out to get there hair done, and again mt sis said she'll never speak to me if I leave it.....lol

So I need to run and get my hair cut and shave and find a suit to wear since I'n a usher,

Later all

Kenny
