The big news is…. I ran my first marathon โโ the NYC Marathon, one of the most popular marathons in the United States. What can I say? I like to start big.
It’s been a good year for running. I set a couple PRs and I reached my goal to run consistently.
The next year will bring new challenges both in my professional life and in my personal life. I have registered for two marathons and I am teaching a Learn to Run clinic through the Running Room. I’ll be keeping my eye on the job market again.
Five Random Resolutions for 2012:
1) Eat clean. I started this weeks ago. I am trying to reduce the amount of processed food I digest and curb my bread cravings. (Quick update: I am doing awesome. No toast for brekky or for snacks in weeks)
2) Stretch more. I say this every year, every month, every week, every day. Some time it will sink it.
3) Stay focused. I have terrible short term focus. My mind wanders easily. I forget things easily.
4) Strength training. Again I have already started this weeks ago.
5) Reduce television viewing. I’ve been watching way too much lately.
