2012 Goals in Review

Last year I spelled out my 2012 goals for you in this blog post. I was a little scared to go check it out today to see how I did, because I knew I had a lot of racing goals and that area of my life kind of went kerplunk this year.  Also, there's the whole "gaining back all of the weight i had lost" deal.  

Turns out it's not too bad. Here is the excerpt from that post:

Racing Goals

• Complete two sprint triathlons this year and perhaps an Olympic distance Tri. (NOPE)
• Run a person record in the 5k (NOPE)
• Run at least one 10k and decide about doing a half at some time in my lifetime (NOPE and NOPE)

Personal Goals

• Try Airobics (CHECK!)
• Paint at least one wall in my house (CHECK!)
• Continue blogging (MOSTLY CHECKED!)
• Get my savings account back to where it should be (CHECKED, but then unchecked when I bought my new computer, working on this again)
• Read at least 60 books (CHECK!)

So this tells us that I completely and utterly failed at racing in 2012, but that I'm pretty well succeeding as a person. And you know what? I'm okay with that.

I'm still thinking about what my goals for 2013 will be, hopefully I'll post them next week as we ring in the New Year.*

*Why is New Year a universally acknowledge proper noun?  Looks to me like two un-proper nouns just jammed together.  Maybe we should all revolt against capitalizing it.
