I’ve got a lot going on this week. Work-wise my goal is to put the next episode of Open House Chicago together in record time! I always try to get shows done fast, but I’d like to get this one done significantly ahead of schedule to try and get ahead of the game for the end of the year.
Today I get to talk with Coach Jen about my goals for the year. Coach had me fill out some paperwork specifically asking about goals, races I want to run and how I think I can accomplish all of it. So I’m interested to hear her take on what I wrote. Since I’m a total newbie to triathlons I think it may be safe to say my goals are out of whack!
I’m hoping that I can jump right into training this week too.
Back to work stuff… Friday I have a helluva-long day. I get to interview the legendary Coach Ditka in the morning, then head back to my office to work on Open House, THEN head out to the 85 Bears reunion for another shoot in the evening.
Now let’s talk weekend cause it’s gonna be busy too! Saturday I’m headed to the Emmy’s here in Chicago. Our shows are up for 2 awards and one of our hosts is up for an award! It’s exciting stuff! But it’ll be a long night and there is sure to be an after-party.
Sunday… It’s my son’s 1st birthday party! I can’t believe it’s been a year already! So like most parents, we’re having a big party at our house. About 30+ relatives and friends are coming over to party with Sammy! We’ll have a lot to do to get ready, and after a night at the Emmys it’s going to take a Starbucks “Black Eye” or two to get it done!
Whooo, just writing all that is exhausting, but I’m geared up!
Let’s Do It!!!
I’ll be sure to post more tonight after talking to Coach Jen!
