Spring break

Not much different these holidays except it was my first birthday with my new born daughter. What more could I ask for not one gift or gesture could possibly mean more than my darling daughter, my whole world is her and it feels like I have done something right for once in my life.

Mornings were the usual up at five o’clock stretching getting ready for my run, after my run go through my strength and conditioning routine warm down, hot shower then breakfast. Usually I finish by seven o’clock so depending if my daughter and her mother stayed I wake them up for breakfast out by the pool.

Most of our time is spent out in the court yard playing or listening to music. We just bought her a bouncer so she spends a lot of time in that she loves it I like it because it helps her build strong legs, most of my time during the day I spend just watching my daughter I really see her growing everyday.

Afternoons are usually when I head off to training for two hours a night kickboxing really helps my fitness, maybe one day my daughter will be able to go one better than me and become a champion.

Every aspect of my life no matter what I’m doing I do it for her that’s why in December, when I leave for the army its going to be hard but the sacrifice is worth it. I will have good job security and great qualifications when I leave and something to be proud of.

So really my spare time at the moment is just spent planning and striving to achieve a better future for the two of us. I know and understand failure is not an option that is what drives me to be fit and committed to achieving my goals.
