One small step…

12Feb08

Today I passed the first official step of becoming qualified by the Lubbock Police Department to be a peace officer. I met the minimum physical requirements… not only did I meet them, but I actually surpassed them. We were required to do at least 40 pushups, and 40 situps each in a minute. Then we had to run a 13 minute 1.5 miles. When it was all said and done… I did 65 pushups in a minute… 47 situps in a minute and ran the 1.5 mile in 11.22 minutes. So I have OFFICIALLY met and exceeded Lubbock Police Departments requirement for physical fitness. Everything else I gain physically is just bonus.

YAY!! thanks for the encouragement guys!

    I’m so glad that you are getting to feel some success. I know that that has to be good for your heart. Anytime we can exceed the bar that is set before us … WOW … what a lift. Keep it up … we are right behind you. On that mile thing … I’m pretty far behind … but still there. :)

    I am impressed! Good job! I know just having that behind you is a relief, because even being reasonably certain that you will be able to meet those standards…there still has to be some stress and worry. At least, that is, until you do it…and do far more, better, faster! I’m proud of you.

    And thanks for keeping up with the change of the blog background! ;-)

    Your blog needs to be updated. I don’t see you now so I need some news! I need a blog about your girls (and how much they miss me!) I am trying to be nicer than I usually am about this ok ? Next reminder will be crude!
