May 6, 201115 yr In what capacity, specifically? Police officer, dispatcher etc? Any agencies or areas you are interested in? Police, I'm not a desk jockey(though I have been for 6 years/college), I can do alot of things, but I only want to do two, be in the field and make a difference.
May 6, 201115 yr It was very difficult for me, but great! I do those particular workouts again in a few days so hopefully I will do even better that time. I was soaked with sweat afterwards, though!

Dispatchers are an extremely important part of LE IMO. Even if it's not what you want to do, they "make a difference" as well.
May 6, 201115 yr Nothing more frustrating than an incompetent dispatcher lol. I'd start applying at the bigger agencies around the state, probably the best in your neck of the woods with Boone Co.
May 6, 201115 yr Author Law enforcement in some capacity. I'm burnt out at the current job, it was just a means to get me through college and now that I am done I DESPERATELY want to leave it behind. According to their website the Henderson police department is hiring. http://www.hendersonkypolice.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=25&Itemid=73
May 7, 201115 yr Author Laid out a 5K course around my neighborhood and ran it yesterday afternoon in 22:09. Alot better time then I expected.
May 7, 201115 yr I'd honestly rather stick needles in my eyes.. Haha--seriously, it is kind of fun, in an exhausting way. It gets you results quick, that's for sure. Plus I can do it in my own home, on my own time, which is very beneficial to me. Not to mention, after a woman has had multiple pregnancies and her husband says "honey, your obliques are looking good..." well, it's a good thing!
May 7, 201115 yr Author Think about getting a GPS watch. Anyone have suggestions? I am leaning towards the Garmin Forerunner 305 and adding the heart rate monitor.
May 10, 201115 yr Run by day, rock by night. Registration opens here soon. It sells out rather quickly... the half does at least. You will not be disappointed in this race. The finish is cool because your complete it at Auto Zone Park and they announce your name through the stadium. As I said, the support is tremendous and you get to run through St. Jude's Hospital which can bring a tear to your eye. Some of the kids may be outside and you sort of get mad at yourself for ever questioning how tough this race is for me when it pales in comparison anything they go through. I just registered for this one.
May 10, 201115 yr Very cool.Thanks for the heads up on it. This will be my 1st mini so I'm really looking forward to it.
May 10, 201115 yr Start my 3 new routines tonight. Pretty happy with my results from testing out last Thursday. Everyone keep up the good work!
