Goodbye 2010

Only one hour to go and it will officially be 2011. I must say that I have a lot of hope for 2011. I am wanting my biggest focus to be on running but I am also holding onto some other small hopes. I am actually a little foggy headed at the moment seeing as it is way past my bedtime. The only reason I am still awake right now is the fact that I made some deliciously sugary cookies. ( mostly healthy of course ). I am too tired to think in depth of what I hope to capture in this new year, but I will say that I hope that it will come with lots of joy and personal growth.

Not only is tomorrow the New Year but the day after that ( Jan. 2nd ) is the first birthday of this blog. Yep I typed up my first blog on Jan. 2nd 2010. Yay go me.

Happy New Year everyone!

Running for Resolutions

Resolutions, resolutions...that subject is all the rage these days. Probably because the year 2010 is almost over. Which makes me a little nervous because not only am I usually a complete failure at any sort of resolution but the year is changing to and odd number. 2011 is just not as pretty to look at. Number eleven was my number throughout my high school soccer career however so perhaps it will be a good year. So onto those New Years resolutions:

I have a few resolutions, but most importantly I would like to focus on running. I want to make 2011 the year that I run my first marathon. Not only do I want to run my first marathon, but I want to push myself harder. I would like to see what I am capable of by actually following a training plan and not just going out and running when and how far I feel like. Sure I may never be "elite runner status" or be running for the Olympic team, but I want to know what my body's full potential is. I am getting older so I feel now is a good time to really dig deep and give it my all. I have the time, energy, and great places to run. Why not right? Any coaches out there?

So now you know what my New Years resolution is. I have a few others but I think I will save those for future blogs and when I have internet that doesn't log off every 5 minutes, forcing me to type a million words a minute and skip the editing step. Just kidding I never edit my blogs. I am way to lazy for that. You should know that.

For a little update...we might be getting internet today. Cross your fingers.

Happy Thursday

Update

Just thought I would do a quick update for you all. No, I am not neglecting my blog, I have not mysteriously gotten busier since moving to Germany, or become too lazy to blog. However, I still do not have Internet which is seriously digging into my blogging time. Sure I could thumb out blogs on my iPhone but I feel like I rush them more this way. The screen is so small that it narrows my thought process. Not to mention the thought of some seriously wrong and potentially embarrassing auto correct words.

Anyways... I should have Internet again starting the 13th and then DSL by the 20th if all goes as planned. So goodbye for now, and in case I don't see ya, good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
