Got some unexpected extra hours at work which is always nice, I started running while carrying water, and actually put $2,000 aside in savings! This was a nice productive week.

5k training is COMPLETE! The race is TOMORROW! Holiday season at Fogo is CRAZY! Adri is my loving and beautiful WIFE! All in all, life is good. I’m so excited for the race.
