Days 78 & 79

Guys guess what!? J IS NO LONGER ON THE TRAINING TABLE!!! 🤗🤘🏽 And he did so well on his 2nd PFT. Last time he scored 60-something points and this time he scored 75! He was a little upset because he felt he could've scored 80+ points, but they didn't do the obstacle course this time because of the weather- so they just double their pull-up scores and that actually hurt him. This time around he ran 8:13 for his 1.5 mile compared to 8:18 the first time, 54 push ups (42 last time), 43 sit ups (39 last time), 4 pull ups (1 last time!) and the same 300m time! I'm super proud of him! Running has always been his speciality, but it's so awesome to see him improving in the other areas as well! We chatted for a while, but then at 8pm he had to go to a meeting with all of the company commanders, squad leaders and guidons to go over some marching stuff. He had to study for a little bit afterwards, so we called it a night. Today I woke up and it was SNOWING! It caught everyone off guard because it was not in the forecast. I was off today- so I had to look at hotels, flights and car rentals for my best friends wedding! It's not until May, but since I'm a bridesmaid, I want to make sure I have everything planned ASAP! I went for a nice snowy run, then picked up my mommy from work. We started our workout in our garage gym and I was bombarded with texts from my former athletes. They're a little frustrated right now because they don't have a coach, and the head coach is currently over seeing them, but what he's making them do makes absolutely no sense. So I told them I'd write them up a training plan until someone else with distance running experience takes over. It is a little frustrating that they don't have a coach considering our head coach knew there was a chance we wouldn't be returning since LAST SEASON... But there's nothing that can be done about it now. I'll just have to coach my kids from 500+ miles away because I care too much about them to say "tough shit, not my problem". I heard from J around 6pm and we both talked about our day. I also had to share with him that I don't know if I'll be able to make the drive to SAC this weekend because of the weather. It's supposed to snow again Sunday- and since I work, I don't want to risk not making it, especially with all of these days off I'll be asking for 🙁😞😢. J told me he had report writing class, PMA, and DUI investigation. We talked a little bit more, then J wanted to head off to bed. Hopefully the remainder of this week and next week fly. Luckily next weekend is a 3 day weekend for the cadets! 

79 days down.. 115 to go!!
