The Resolution Post
by Mike W. @ It's Not Over 'Til You're Underground
It being new years and all, it's time for bloggers everywhere to create their obligatory "resolution" post. I'm not sure if you can call me a blogger... considering I haven't posted much over the last few months... and considering I don't think anybody reads this, except maybe my parents.... Hi Mom & Dad!... Well, actually, that probably makes me like about 98% of the bloggers in the world. So... anyway...
Things are a bit different this year. For the first time in five years, I am NOT doing an Ironman. (That is, unless I tempt fate and enter the Hawaii Lottery... because I have good luck in lotteries... at least in those that make me pay money, not win it). Plus, I have a new job. Last time I had a new job, I had to drop out of my Ironman because I couldn't get the time off, and didn't find enough time to train.
So, yeah... resolutions.
1. Lose 10 lbs by Wildflower.
2. Start swimming again... when was the last time I was in a pool???
3. Take the train to work at least once a week.
4. Ride my bike to work at least twice a month.
5. Don't let the job take over life... don't skimp on the workouts!
6. Blog more... it keeps me honest.
7. Take life by the horns - think less, act more.
Also, I guess you couldn't really call these resolutions, but more like goals...
8. Beat my half-Ironman PR.
9. Beat my marathon PR (by more than 1 second!).
There are probably more, but that's more than enough for now. Blogging keeps me honest, but enough is enough!
