I start my 6 week training with a mentor today. I've talked to the guy on the phone a couple of times and it sounds like we'll get along fine. He's been with Swift for a few years and runs over 3000 miles a week, so it looks like I'll be getting plenty of miles in.
I'm sure glad to be done with the Swift school and orientation. I was lucky enough to have some top notch instructors and a few good classmates that made the process not only bearable but interesting and entertaining at times. Needless to say I'm also ready to leave the Phoenix heat behind for awhile.
I'm hoping I'll have good comments to share about my next 6 weeks, not like some of the horror stories I've read about.
I'll keep you all updated as the weeks go by on how it's going.
