So I set some goals....
So for those that don't know I play the violin. I have played for almost my whole life, but when Caden and I got married I stopped taking lessons and playing 5 hours a day (from being a music major at snow college). I was lazy at finding a teacher for a year and a half. I realized without help I was losing my talent...so a few months ago I found this wonderful teacher, Leslie and I absolutely love playing again. I'm going to audition for the Salt Lake Symphony in August. I have a recital 4 weeks from today were I am playing this beautiful piece "Vocalise" by Rachmaninoff. I'm back to scales, etudes, and Mozart for auditions. Oh boy!
and on the same day as my recital I'm doing a triathlon!!!
My sister Cassie did this same triathlon last year and encouraged me to do it this year with her. I mean she just have a baby 2 months ago and she's doing it! She's a rock. It's 300 yards swimming, 15 miles biking, then a 5k. I just have to say it's kicking my trash. I've really enjoyed going to swim for exercising and I just ordered a road bike for my birthday and am way excited, but I know the run is going to kick my butt. I've never done anything like this before.Wish me luck! 6 a.m. workouts here I come!
p.s. my sister mal just completed a half marathon today! as Chicago would say " you're the inspiration!" good job!
