Year in Review

Well, this must be a new year's thing for me - the only other time i've written a post was this time last year.

I found it interesting to read what my goals and motivations were last year. Here's how i did...

• Run 8 half marathons, eventually breaking 2 hrs. Result: Actually ran 11 or 12 halfs and broke 2 hrs in Feb 2011. Horray!

The girls at Disney Princess Half!

• Complete 10 trail runs. Result: I did at least 10 trail runs, although most were personal runs. Still counts...
• Run at least 70% of the Knee Knacker course. Unofficially! Result: Failed!! only ran last section. Maybe 20% tops...
• Listen to new/better music: Done! Although still get into ruts. At least my rut is current.
• See one of the above mentioned bands in concert. I can't continue to only go see Great Big Sea and Blue Rodeo (even though they are both AMAZING!!!). I've heard rumours that the Zac Brown Band AND Kenny Chesney should be coming through Seattle this year. I'm going to hope for that one! Result: Although Zac Brown let me down, i did see Kenny twice last year (with Uncle Kracker!!)

At the Kenny concert



• Run in three foreign cities. Result: Done! Honolulu, Lahaina, London UK, Orlando...  


• Gym workouts three times per week (average). Result: Not average, but I'll count this as a success. Was consistently 3x per week even when travelling.
• Grow my hair back. I miss my ponytails! Result: Done! Ponytails in place!!
• Post to this blog at least one more time (I have a very short attention span!)  Result: Failed... Oh well, I actually didn't say it had to be last year...

Won!!! on my birthday too!

Not I have to write another post for next year.
