Wake Me Up When October Ends
I've just finished reading C.S. Lewis' "The Magician's Nephew," which is the prequel to "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe." This novel was short and other than some British countryside dialogue, a pleasure to read. <spoilers>There are some obvious influences from the Bible, the usual Good vs. Evil theme, and even World War II surprisingly. As it's aimed towards children I'll accept the way-too-happy-endings for now.</spoilers> I will continue reading The Chronicles of Narnia with "The Horse and his Boy" next.

I'm now waking up just after 06:00 on weekdays and have been going to the gym every single day (except for Thanksgiving and this past Sunday) since the end of September. I feel good so far but I still need to work on increasing the duration of my cardiovascular exercising. Why? A disastrous result from Sunday's CN Tower Stair Climb - 00:21:23 - is proof enough. I could have trained for this event but it was a fun challenge and a great reason to hang out with fellow Swordfish friends. My inital goal of 15 minutes was very high so I will aim for under 18 minutes next year.
Notes to self about the CN Tower Stair Climb:

Notes to self about the CN Tower Stair Climb:
- Started breathing hard after 20+ "flights" of skipping steps
- Began pulling self up with railings after 50 flights
- Hardly skipped steps in the 80-120 flight range
- Paused for a breather around the 100th flight - could've used some water
- Climbing over 1,776 steps was tiring for the heart and lungs - and not so much for the legs
- Still had energy to climb the remaining steps after punching in card at final flight 143!
