The studying and sacrifice paid off. I took the test this morning and passed. I needed a 170 and earned a 178. I was pretty stoked. I reviewed the information again this morning before the test and then went to the facility. It was all computer based and they wouldn't let you even wear a watch into the testing area. So I take the test, and yes, it was as hard as they made it sound. I must have marked 20 questions to go back and review. It took me about an hour, but we get 2 hours to take it. Then another 10 or 15 minutes to go back and review the marked questions. Then it was decision time. Do you hit the "End" button or review more questions? I hit the end button and it popped up with a bunch of information about the test and scoring and I couldn't find my score. Then I saw it. I didn't know if that was my score or not. But it was, and I was ecstatic. Now I am Cameron Denison, AIC, CPC, LEED AP. (Yeah, all construction stuff that doesn't mean diddley outside of the industry)

Running, Situps & Pushups
For a while before Savannah was born I was doing well, losing weight, working out everyday, watching what I eat and starting to look good. Then as Linda got more uncomfortable and sleeping less, I started sleeping less and stopped getting up in the morning. Since then I haven't been getting up as early and therefore don't workout in the morning. Than has led me to gain the majority of the weight back, and right around the mid section. So, this past Monday, I am starting all over. I'm not going to be as anal about the food, but I'll try to choose better selections. The main part will be running, situps and pushups. The schedule is this for now; run morning and evening on Monday, morning on Tuesday, evening on Wednesday and both morning and evening on Thursday and Friday. If possible, run once Saturday and/or Sunday. Prior to each run I'll do a set of Situps and Pushups. Right now it's only a mile, which I can get through (couldn't make the whole thing on Monday morning, but made it Monday night). The goal is to get back into a bit of shape sticking to the one mile lap until I can do it without being quite as winded. Then I'll stretch it into a mile and a half. After I get that one down, I'll jump to a 3 mile route which is where I was when I stopped running a year and a half ago. Little steps. Right now I just want to get back into shape and shed the extra weight.
