4/22/2018
        I managed to get a lot done today. I went to the library around 1:30 and started my marathon of homework. I ended up coming home at one point to meet with someone concerning the sale of my sofa. It’s not sold yet, but the potential buyer says he should be able to swing by and pick it up by Wednesday. On that note, someone committed to purchasing my guitar as well. After I met with the individual concerning my couch, I headed back to the library. I managed to write up to 10 pages on my Bitcoin Research paper, and I completed three MIS assignments. I always kick myself come finals time for not having this level of productivity year-round. Someday I’ll find my method of coping with the wintertime slump. In any case, if I keep this productivity up, I’ll be set for finals, and be ready for summer without too much stress.
            Today was a rest day in my gym routine but I left the library early because of getting so much done that I had time to sneak a quick cardio workout in before the Wellness Center at NDSU closed. My gym session for tonight was as follows:
·       15 minutes moderate speed on the stairclimber
·       15 minutes on the bike doing moderate intervals
·       30 burpees
13 days until the Montana Spartan Race.

I’m planning on being at the library again tomorrow. I may start studying for exams already if I finish the final touches on my research paper. I also have a quiz due the 26th I could do.
Weather was great again today, low to mid 60’s. NDSU was full of people hammocking which was nice to see.
Overall, I’m very much ready for Summer to start, and to wrap up with this semester.

North Dakota may be considered a fly-over state, but is the title deserved? Let’s find out. Great small Business environment. North Dakota has a booming small business environment. Fargo, North Dakota is routinely voted as  one of the best places to start a business  by Forbes.com. While much of the economic success can be attributed to the Bakken shale formation in the western portion of the state, there are areas in North Dakota such as Fargo that are proving the state is more than just a frack zone. Businesses in the down town areas of the more populous cities of North Dakota including Bismarck, Fargo, Minot, and Grand Forks are all boasting great success as these areas are renovated and brought back to life.

Spartan race in Montana, finals week and big changes!                I finally got back home from western Montana where I ran the Bigfork, Montana Spartan beast. The race was the first of the Spartan mountain series. The race was 13 miles with over 30 obstacles and was no easy task! I ran the race in about 4 hours and 30 minutes. I can safely say that the #SpartanMontana pushed me to my limits. About 8 miles into the race I started experiencing crazy leg cramps from all the uphill running. I don’t think I took care to hydrate properly before the race. I am psyched for the next one, because I am ready to improve on this years’ time.             The drive to the race itself was no easy task either. I began the long trek from Fargo, North Dakota to Kalispell, Montana at around 2:00pm on Thursday, the 3 rd . I picked up my cousin and we drove all through the night until about 6am. Once we were finally in our hotel room, we crashed and slept until around noon that day. W

4/20/2018 Short entry for tonight. I am going to begin working on my bitcoin research project for class tonight and pick up again tomorrow. The stress of final exams being around the corner is ramping up. I will have to commit to going to the library and working for a few hours to ensure that I am being productive with me time. Enjoyed a more relaxed Friday today, although I refrained from the popular custom that typically accompanies this day. I am more than okay to stick with my coffee only. Gym routine today was as follows: 1.      Overhead (Military) press heavy singles up to 205 lbs, and then 5x5 at 135 lbs. 2.      Bench Press 3x8 175 lbs 3.      Incline dumb bell press 3x12 55 lbs 4.      Tricep pulldowns 2x8 57.5 lbs 5.      Cardio – 30 Burpees/tire flips and then 5 minutes max incline treadmill cool down Took a video of the OHP as it is a personal best for me. Put it on Instagram here and tagged #legiogloria, glad to be a part of that community. I ha
