Snow is back

This past week there has been a lot of snow and there's a foot on the ground again now, and it's seriously cold.

I ran the track meet at Western last Saturday. 10 mins for the 3000 m which is 15 s slower than last time so not great but still ok. Hopefully with another two weeks training before the York meet I can get a bit faster, I am going to run the 1500 m.

I've got a lot of work at the moment, especially for the project module but it is all pretty interesting stuff this term so I'm happy with it.

Back in Canada

I returned to Canada just after New Year and spent a few days with my cousins in Sarnia before heading back to Uni. It had really warmed up and the snow melted last week, temperatures reaching 13°C one day and I was able to run in shorts and t-shirt. More snow settled today and it's cooled back down but not even close to what it was last term.

I've had one week of term now, and my class choices seem ok. The electronics course is a little advanced (4th year final term level) but I think I'll cope. I have a couple of 9pm tutorials though which is insane.

2008 Warrior Track and Field Team - Steve Brooks

On a sport front, I've got on the track team local roster, which means I get to compete at the near-by one-day races, the next is this Saturday in London again. It's been good to get back into training after quite a lazy Christmas, but I think the break did me good. It was a shock to my body after the first interval session though but I feel good now after a week.
