My little runner

As of right now Daniel has ran in more than 10 races. He started running in the winter of 2008, and he decided he was going to train for the Chicago Marathon! Since running the Chicago Marathon, he's done a half Ironman, several half marathons and ran things like Bolder Boulder a lot. Right now he's training for the St. George Marathon on Oct. 2, and is running in a 1 mile race with his family on Aug 12th.

Back in May, Daniel had and Half Ironman event in Florida, so we thought we'd try to make it our summer vacation too. We ended up renting a car and staying in Orlando. We had to be at the event by 4:00 am-gross. He did really well, finishing his 1.2 mile swim, 54 mile bike-ride, and 13 mile run in 6 and 1/2 hours! His goal was just to finish, but thats a pretty good time for a first-timer.

The next day we drove to Tampa to visit his grandparents and to see one of his friends from high school. We stayed the night, the went to the beach the next day, which was a blast. By the time we got home I was exhausted, we only put 1 driver on the rental car cause we are both under 25. We had a lot of fun and hope to make it back to Tampa soon.

So right now Daniel and I are living in Fort Collins, CO. We're both going to CSU. I'm majoring in Economics, minoring in international development (only 3 semesters left!) and Daniel is most likely going to major in Art History, that or painting or graphic design. He wants to work in a gallery so whatever will allow him to do that and graduate as quickly as possible. I moved to Fort Collins Summer of 2009 from Grand Junction and Daniel has been here for a little over 2 years now. Right now I'm working at King Soopers in the pharmacy. I got certified almost a year ago. It's pretty stressful most of the time, but it's a good while-in-college job pay wise. Daniel works at Jimmy Johns delivering sandwiches. I hear it's like a party most of the time.

We have 2 cats Abelard and Jacques. I thought Abelard was a long-haired Siamese, but I've been informed those are called Himalayan cats. He's pretty cool, if you ever need someone to snuggle with for hours it's him. Jacques is pretty but the complete opposite of him. When Daniel first got her they told him that it was a boy, well at her doc check-up he told us it is a girl so we got her a pink collar and named her Jacqueline. She's tiny, feisty, and is the boss. So we dont get along very well.
