Triathlon 1.1

Race Day!

The eve of the big day is upon Mel and I. We just got back from our pre-triathlon meeting and packet pick up and we inspected the course. It looks pretty good so far, I just wanted to post a few of my goals for tomorrow.

1) Complete the race in under 1 hour 30 min.
2) Pass more people than pass me.

Simple and straight forward, I'll post the results when I get them. Wish me good luck.

Bahamas Surprise

This one actually caught me off guard today. I had finished something last week that I had planned on posting here but I ran into some problems with it. I haven't had a chance to try and fix it until now, and low and behold I sat down to work on it, and it turns out its already fixed. So with out further ado, here is what I have been promising for awhile:

Running out of time

Well, the Triathlon is fast approaching, and I am hardly what I would consider well prepared. When I do get a chance to work out, I put in some good time, but its been finding time to work out around my work that has been rather tricky. Some of it, I will admit, is applying the proper motivation when I am on my days off, but the bigger issue has been working around my schedule. Case in point, I have not been training for the swimming section, and the reason why is the best time for me to do that, the pool is not available. I will just have to be creative about it, last two weeks of training and all, should be fun.

And as a side note, I have something I've been working on that is 95% finished, so look for it soon.

/sigh

So much work to be done...

This is a map of current state of teaching Evolution in classrooms. Its truly sad how this ties into the bigger picture of a lot of the problems with our society and its concept of what science really is.
