Susan's Resolutions 2011

[posted 1/2/11 but I had the list 12/31/10 just couldn't figure out how to post it then]

ok this is not all running related but I really wanted to get this all down in writing somewhere:

  • run as far as I could in the FA50 - 50 if my hip and ankle could bear it ✔ 50!  
  • PB on a half marathon
  • PB on a full marathon
  • run a 4 hr marathon
  • STOP seeing people who are so NOT good for my mental health and be STRONG and STICK with it this time!!
  • ignore MEAN people and their MEAN comments/actions and not let them get to me - MEAN people SUCK
  • fix ankle and hip injury and figure out how to avoid injuring them again!
  • actually really leave the RR if feel like it again no wishy-washyness
  • meet new runners so I'm not reliant on the RR
  • learn to be more disciplined on solo runs
  • learn to enjoy running solo
  • figure out how to run fast without being pissed off - draw on +ve energy instead of -ve
  • start drawing/painting/photography registered for classes
  • not get another speeding ticket!
  • figure out how to NOT wipe out on my bike so I can cross-train on it
  • walk to/from work more
  • kick that Insanity chick's butt in the fit tests
  • more core exercises
  • try to stop stressing about how many calories are in a gel
  • Marathon du Medoc
  • drink less night before a run/race
  • First Half Marathon
  • Vancouver or Eugene Marathon
  • Whistler Half Marathon
  • Victoria or Kelowna or something half or full

Thanks for sharing, Susan.  I

Thanks for sharing, Susan.  I hope you have a great running year and can come out to lots of our events.  My dad has done Medoc and had loads of fun... it's not just the wine you drink on the course, there is also lots of very fine food.

marathon du medoc

i love how the medoc comes right before "drink less night before a run/race"... well, actually, i guess with medoc you don't drink *before* the race so much :)

are you really going to do that one this year?! i've often thought about it but never reeeally thought about it like to actually do. and probably not this year for me. but hopefully someday!

(for those who haven't heard of this marathon: google it!)

and i second ean's congrats on achieving your first resolution! i just got back from the running store with husband who just bought his first pair of trail shoes! hooray!

Thanks guys! Looking forward to doing more fat ass runs. I was thinking to come out for the Gerbil run this weekend (running in circles sounds like run ha) but decided to go skiing instead...maybe next one!
