A few things Im thankful for

I have a lot to be thankful for, and I thank god for it everyday. There are many things, but I will share just a few.  First off, I would have rathered being in Oahu right now, but sometimes things don't go the way we want them to go.  Living in Oahu was just not meant to be, but maybe in the future.  Leaving was the hardest thing to do, but it was for the better and everything worked out.  I'm thankful for the path that god has put me on, because a year ago I wouldn't have seen myself living in Chicago.  I'm thankful to be in school, have a job, a roof over my head, and also living a lot more closer to my family.  I'm sure my family is annoyed by me by now, but hey! I LOVE YOU! : )

Kauai Half Marathon

1st Kamaʻāina to finish 'Kauai Half Marathon'. Not my best, but "Oh my god, Im happy to be done with the race". I spoke to 'Dean Karnazes' while heading to the starting line. That was definitely a highlight of the race. Including a kid that said " What up cuz!" at the 11 mile marker. Didnt get a chance to tell Dean, that he was the main reason why I started running ; )

Fraud in Hawaii named Raymond Schreiber

If visiting Hawaii, and looking for a place to stay, watch out for a fraud. There is a fraud, that claims to rent out apartment rooms. He goes by the name of "Raymond Schreiber". I should of known, when I emailed him and never got a response with a phone number of contact. Watch out! I sent money western union, to a Brian Sargeant in Taylorville, Illinois to secure a apartment. Everytime I email Raymond, to set a date to pick up the keys, I never get a response. It is a complete fraud! I was ripped out of $540, to secure a apartment that im sure doesnt exists.

Rugrat On Wheels

First training run, turned into a speedy race! A speedy race, with a young skateboarder. The little "Rugrat on wheels" provoked me! Provoked me, by looking back, more than once. I picked it up, after he looked back the second time. I looked back, and he was gone : )

Hawai'i Sport Magazines

Since Semper Fit doesnt allow Hawai'i Sport Magazines to be posted in the gym. I post them in areas where Marines, and Sailors normally go. So many that do not know about local triathlons, biathlons, 5k,10k, Half Marathon, and Marathon events in the area.
