If I tagged you, here are 11 questions for you to answer...
- Do you keep a training log? - Yes, so I can track my progress through the season.
- Do you think videos of guys getting hit in their privates are funny? - It's no laughing matter once it happens to you. It's funny if it's someone that I'm not too fond of.
- Train/Race - socks or no socks? - Socks
- What is your favorite movie? - I watch so many it's hard to choose one. "Remember the Titans" is up there.
- Do you listen to music while you train? - I don't train with music since I can't hear the traffic. I don't trust Oahu drivers.
- Heel striker or mid/forefoot? - Used to heel strike but now I'm more of a midfoot.
- How many pairs of running shoes do you own? - 4, three running shoes and 1 trail/hiking shoes.
- What is your favorite color? - Dark Blue
- Democrat, Republican, Libertarian, Independent, Other... Don't Care? - The best party
- At what training distance do you decide to carry your own hydration? - Always for biking but never for running. I choose my running routes well.
- Do you wear your workout clothes more than once before washing them? - Yeah, unless I get rained on or get really muddy. I live and train alone so no one really complains.

So what do you do? and Why did you get a degree in cell molecular biology? Did you go to school here at UH? Curious.
Breaststroke is evil. Almost as evil as backstroke. Butterfly is where all the cool kids are.
Currently I'm a lab tech, mostly just deal with safety compliance and hazardous waste disposal. Previously I was a PQ Inspector with the Hawaii Dept of Ag until I got laid off.
I thought it was cool but wasn't a fan of doing PCR. Thought it was just too long and would take longer if you messed up. Wasn't having any of that.
Went to UHH for undergrad and did some grad work in entomology at at UH but never finished. No desire to go back either.
Hahaha. Yups, backstroke is evil without a doubt.
Interesting. How do you like life as a lab tech? I also have a degree in CMB.
Funny you mention PCR because I have to do a test run next week to test out several primers that I have in storage. I always run multiples, to test out all the reagents because it does take so long to wait for the thermocycler.
Kudos to you on your swimming skills. Impressive.
