Normally, I'm not a fan of new year resolutions. I think its so cliche and most people give up after only a few weeks. Don't get me wrong I'm a huge goal setter, but I don't do it because I'm "supposed to" I do it because I want to accomplish something. This year has been hard, very hard. I hate to say it but I'm going to be one of those that says I can't wait until next year when I get a fresh start. I've been pretty good about going to the gym 4-5 times a week for the last couple months (minus the week from you know where when I was in the ER and this past week actually because I've been dealing with a cold/sinus thing) Anyway, it's been really good to go but I feel I need a goal to keep me motivated. I do not want it to solely be for weight loss either, that will come on its own and its not something that can keep me motivated enough to keep doing it. So, I've officially decided I want to participate in a half marathon. I think a marathon would be too much and I've already done a 5K before. It's funny I'm really not a fan of running, but over the last little bit I've started to like it more and more. The Salt Lake Marathon is in April and I think what better time, its far enough away that I can train for it, yet close enough I won't feel it's out of reach. Who knows if I'll back out, but a few months ago I would have laughed at the idea of it and well I just never know where 2011 will take me.
