What I learned from lululemon athletica...

October 21st was my last day at lululemon athletica in the Quarry. Why you ask? I had to make some priorities that I lost. My family, graduate school and me. I learned a lot from lululemon athletica this past year. lulu has been wonderful about teaching their employers...goal setting. I have always been a goal setter, especially when I was in high school/college years. Some amazing things I have accomplished in the past:
  1. Worked and swam with Killer Whales, Beluga whales, dolphins and sea lions for 14 years
  2. Accomplished 4 Ironman's
  3. Ten 1/2 Ironman's and numerous triathlons
  4. On Team USA for the World Championship Duathlon in 2001
As you get older, you tend to forget about your goals, your ambitions and your dreams. You tend to forget to realize who you are....and who you CAN BE! When your goals are out in the universe...they can come true. I have accomplished alot within a year working there. This is what I have accomplished:
  1. Took my GRE
  2. Applied to Graduate School at UTSA
  3. Got Accepted to Graduate School at UTSA, getting my Master's in Kinesiology
  4. Recieved my CrossFit Certification
  5. Chris and I have been going to church on a weekly basis
  6. Talk with my Mom on a weekly basis
  7. CrossFit-4-5x's a week
  8. Get back into triathlon again
  9. Did 3 Triathlons this year (2 sprints and 1 Olympic)
  10. Signed up for 70.3 IM in Galveston in April 2011
  11. Participated in the Regional CrossFit Games with RiverCity CrossFit Team
  12. My 40th b-day dream is coming true...we are going to Paris in 2012

I had a wonderful time at lululemon athletica...I met some WONDERFUL people, made great FRIENDS and made some great connection.

While I will "write" my next chapter into my life...I will ALWAYS be greatful for lululemon athletica and the people at the store that brought me to this place in my life. With out YOU (you know who you are!), I wouldn't be out there...achieving more dreams and goals!
