Good luck in your upcoming half IM. Where is it at?
Also, how the heck are you teaching seminary if you are the Bishop? Have they released you? No way it has been 4-5 years, has it???

Hi Mack. The half IM was at Lake Mead near Las Vegas. It was definitely tougher than I thought I would be.
Yep, I am now teaching early morning seminary. Class starts at 5:45 sharp. After 2 1/2 years of being bishop, my kind stake president recognized the toll it was taking on my young family and was inspired to make a change.
Teaching seminary is way easier on my family, but it sure makes it harder to workout.

That's cool Rhett. Are you going to post a race report?
Sounds like you have a wise Stake President. A little sacrifice is always required from a family when someone serves in a calling. But I am a strong believer that there comes a point where it goes too far and is not healthy and a release is the best way to go. Not to mention that you seem like you would make an awesome seminary teacher. If one of your students escapes from your classroom and try's to run bike or swim away you will have no problem catching them and bringing them back!
