The iPhone wasn’t too hot this week, it was down right frozen! It is tough to operate it with gloves on. To make up for the lack of iPhoneography, I included to a photo of a lobster. Seemed like a good idea at the time?
At night, the entire reef changes. All the cool spiny creatures with exoskeletons come out and play. This guy was around 2 feet long. Some are smaller, some are a bit larger. But all equally exciting to find on a dive.
Cool Video: I’m pretty sure the age old ‘snow plow’ wouldn’t be nearly as effective when a 60ft wave it chasing you? Click here to watch Skiing Waves
Photo-Walk Saturday: Come out and join the Illuminate Photography Workshop photo walk this Saturday. It is always a great time followed by food and libations. You can get the details here.
Wow, had no idea you could ski on water :) Awesome :)
OMG fitness update
I did my Army PT test today. I’m a 34 year old woman and have to have 45 situps and run 2 miles in 21:19. There is a push up event but I am exempt due to an injury.
So today I did 57 situps and ran my 2 miles in 16:48. I have not done that since I was in my early 20′s. I was so happy. I lost 3 on my sit ups and that sucked however I I dropped over 2 mins on my run. I am very happy but really sore. I also weighed in at 145.
Great job SaundraU!
That is remarkable Sandra! Hans and I met up for a photo walk this weekend, and were both talking about your accomplishment. Way to go!
Justin, I like the footprints in the snow. Nice capture!
Fitness checkin: Down 2 lbs this week – 43 lbs. in 11 weeks. I was hoping for more weight loss, but it was a stressful week at work and stress isn’t usually conducive to weight loss.
I ran (on my own) a 5K this morning! It’s probably the first time I’ve run that far in over 10 years. It wasn’t a world record pace, but I made it. My legs are a little sore right now. I think I need to do some intervals to increase my speed.
See you at the finish line1
Thanks Hans
Great job on the weight loss and the 5K.
It was a hard week for me. Early on, I did fine, but I did something to my knee so that I got 20 seconds into my run on Friday and decided I had had enough. I think the rest helped. Looking forward to starting my taper next week after a long run today (Monday). The race is a few weeks away!
