In order to get things you've never had, you need to do things that you've never done. Right? Here goes:
1. Quit drinking diet soda. I'll miss you, my sweet friend! I'm on day 4 already and holding strong.
2. Run a 5K race. I'm looking at two options right now; the Susan G Komen Race for the Cure in May, and the Charleston Distance Run in September.
3. Ride 50 miles. At once. On my bike. I am saving money for a real road bike, but until then Brad has agreed to put slick tires and a rigid fork on Black Betty so that I can get started.
4. Take on more responsibility at work.
5. Lose the 20 last pounds and become as healthy as I possibly can be. I swear to god, I make this resolution every damn year. I'm hoping that this will be a sort of by-product of all of the training for numbers 2 and 3. I think I've got the healthy eating part down, I just need to work out more.
6. Visit my friend Melissa and her awesome husband and daughter (my god daughter) in DC at least 3-4 times in 2010. I hope to start this one next month -- they're only a 5 hour drive away!
7. Visit my friend Devin in California. I love this girl and my wedding was the first time I've seen her in nearly 2 years. Unacceptable!
8. Eat dinner at the dining room table. This is definitely a hard one, as Brad and I usually end up balancing our plates on our knees as we watch Jeopardy. Classy.
9. Pay off debt, and start saving money for a house. I can't wait to be free of the debt stranglehold!
10. Super secret goal that I'm not sharing with anyone yet. But I'll let you know what it is when it happens!
Tonight we're off to the home of one of Brad's cycling friends for a NYE celebration. A room full of new people? Sounds like the perfect opportunity for me to be a litte uncomfortable.
Happy new year!
Of course, now I am super intrigued by the last one. Good luck with them all! Kicking the soda will be as hard as quitting smoking in my opinion. I still have one a day.
