a new adventure and a new friend.

[dtccgrad]

Oh holy wow where do I start. Several months ago I signed up for a site called Cdifferent This site pairs blind people with sited guides for sporting events such as running, swimming, and cycling. No I haven't been the best runner so I signed up for this thing thinking well we'll give it the old college try. Wednesday I got an e-mail from a girl named Amy and we planned to get together today. So tonight was amazing. We went to a local sports bar called the black sheep to have a few drinks and talk. After that we went to Zilker park and walked and talked by the water. Before I knew it we had walked a mile and a half. This is the longest I've walked in a long long time. We had a blast. We even waded into the river which was nifty. Amy brought up the subject of competitive sports. I told her I would love to learn how to run and she said she would work with me on it. she thinks I might be ready for a 5 k by the end of this summer. needless to say I'm ready to start my new training and I'm really looking forward to it. chris really really liked Amy a lot. I think we're gonna be fast friends and we texted for a while after she got home. So heres to a new start, new training, and new friendships. I'll keep you guys posted as things progress.
