Alot has changed since my last post. I've started a new full time job working for Suncor Energy in Calgary. As a new grad, I'm part of Suncors Engineering in Training (EIT) program. Essentially, I'll be rotating through 4 different work terms with the requirement of a field position in the first two years. My current position is on the central engineering team on the Voyageur Upgrader Project.
Alright! enough about work!
I'm excited for the year! My good friend is getting married in less than a month and for the first time I'll be on the other side of the camera.
I joined UCTC again and now that I'm homework free, I have more time to commit to training. My legs have been really sore this week, but when i stop to think about it, it's obvious why. I went for a 1.5 hour ride on saturday (the last day of good weather!) Sunday I ran 10km for the first time in 4 months. And monday was another spin practice with the club.
My name is in the 'overseas lottery' for the London Marathon. I find out in October if I won a spot for the late-April race. The exciting thing about London is that it's one of the top 5 marathons in the world. I recently read an article about why marathoning isn't HUGE in canada. The biggest race is Vancouver with about 3000 runners...i may have my facts wrong, but i think that includes 10km, half, 8km, walkers as well. I think the London marathon has about 10 000 people running, and the course is LINED with cheering supporters. I hope i get a spot!
The new Canon 5D Mark II came out which I'm pretty pumped about.
oh yeah, I also went to Australia and New Zealand for a month which deserves a separate post.
That's it for now :)
