My first post:)

I want to welcome you to my blog and thank you for visiting!  As you may know, I am working full time while trying to pursue a dream with Rowing.  My current status is working and training for the upcoming National Rowing Championships (to be held November 11-13th).
My job does require me to travel, as I manage an amazing team of 7 at a medical device company, and I am excited each day to see how I can fit in 4+ hours of training so that I continue to get faster and get closer to qualifying for the National Team.
For 5 years I have trained on a 2km course that is for the most part, always calm, and I have now purposely changed my environment so that I am training on a longer course with rough water and high winds.  So I guess we'll see how it plays out on the week-end of November 11th:).
I also just got back from Phoenix for a work related trip, so I did have to do some cross training there for 3 days...thanks to my friend Rory who was able to help me do rowing related circuits!
In a nutshell, my blog will be about keeping you in the loop on how I go about training while performing the responsibilities of my daily job, work travel, and hopefully future training camps;)
Talk to you soon!
