HR

Well I finally did it. I ordered myself a HR monitor for my training. I've been wanting one for sometime now but didn't have the funds for it. Thanks to Brandon for doing a little research for me when he was working at the shop. He found me this Timex HR watch. I'm a big fan of Ironman watches and didn't even think about looking at them for HR stuff. The plan is after I get it I'm going to do my heart rate test right away and then get on my training plan that I want to try. I was hoping this week for that but still no watch. It didn't matter anyways I got the bug from the kids and I've been out for the last three days. Last week I had one of my best weeks of training at 6-1/2 hours. This week I'm lucky to get 3. First race is just around the corner and I need to get going.

Other then that not much new with me. Hayden is doing much better after her last surgery. No more oxygen or feeding tube and I was told yesterday no more heart monitor at night either. Now if she would only take a bottle. But that's another story. Payton is still loving school and Trey is doing well with out big sis around. As long as he has his dinos and cars he's a happy boy. Man I can't wait for Spring. Now that Hayden is doing better we have big plans this year. I think the main goal is not to be in the house at all. Lots of trips to the Zoo and museums, a week in Colorado Springs and a few trips to Howells. Hopefully it all works out and I'll be racing during the Colorado trip and riding trails in Jon's area when we go back to Howells. But I need to just take it one day at a time. Over the last two years our plans usually didn't go to plan. Fingers cross for 2010.
