LAZY......


Well I ended up not doing the great aloha run at all.. GREAT! Burnt out i guess..

These past few weeks i've been surfing as much as i can.. Got a few really good days out at OTW and some fun little days at half point.... And somehow i managed to get a few days here and there short boarding the famous kaisers bowls!

As for hiking I hiked a few cool new places with Kaleo Lancaster "islandtrails".. check out his website! http://kaleolancaster.blogspot.com/

Here are photos and videos of what ive been up to in the last few weeks.. enjoy!

Fitness..

With only 3 weeks left to the Great Aloha Run Ive been training really hard to make Top 100... The top 100 runners are known as the elite... I laugh at myself everyday thinking how crazy it is that im trying to make top 100! For me to be among the elite would be an accomplishment, especially because I absolutely hate running!

I honestly think that Im in the best shape of my life but yet my goal is still far away! I need to knock 25 seconds of each mile to make it! FUCK.

okay other than that, I LOVE HAVING A JOB! I really enjoy what I do and the people I work with!

OREO baby is getting big... Its like Mariana and I have a little baby!! He is such a responsibility that i feel like a parent! I like it though its good for us!

I also have been getting really good waves on the North Shore. =)

yeah...

Two weeks later....




These past two weeks been very busy...
It went something like this:
Surf, Oreo, work, Oreo, surf, work, Oreo, work, crazy hike, Big Island, surf, Oreo...

Our new dog Oreo is amazing.. Except when he takes a shit on the puppy pad and then steps in his shit and walks around the whole house leaving us a trail of poop to clean up!! Other than that he is an awesome installment to Mariana and I! Now we have a Family!

This past weekend I decided to risk my life one more time with a few friends to do a hike called True Manamana! This was my second time and it was for sure just as scary as the first time I did it! Weather was good and no one got hurt.. Thats a plus..

In the next few months Ill be doing more hikes like these.. Possibly more challenging! Should be exciting!

Enjoy the photos and the Video..
