The year I became a runner

With yet another year coming to an end, I've started to contemplate what it is I'll be doing in 2013. This is in all honest the first year I've set resolutions for myself that I've kept, and I'm ready to build on them. 

First, what I've accomplished this year.

1. Total weight loss: 30 pounds
2. Total mileage (to date): 300.6
3. Total races: 7 

2013 Goals:

Running

• Run 800 miles.
• Run sub 9 pace comfortably.
• Compete in 12 races (at least one half and one full marathon).

General Fitness

• Be able to do 25 unassisted push-ups and pull-ups.
• Conquer my fear of all things inversion in yoga. I will be able to do a full headstand dammit.

Hell, why not?

• Kick the GREs in the balls and apply to the big boys (Columbia, Stanford, and Harvard...I'm coming for you)
• Learn how to paint, finally.
• Write. Every-fucking-day. Even if it's one terrible excuse for a sentence. It's time to get published again. 
• Knock another country off the list.

Into the worm hole I go.
