2009. What's in store?

What's in store for the new year? I don't know, of course.

I used to make New Year's resolutions, but I don't religiously do that any more. Now, it's more of a "when the time is right, I'll start it" kind of thing.

One of the things I'm going to try to work on (again) is being a member of the "clean plate club". I almost always eat everything on my plate. Doesn't matter how much is on it, it's all going down. Not a good thing to be doing. So, I'm going to try to leave stuff on the plate. Or switch to salads. Sigh. I'm not sure how I'll do there.

I'm going to train hard running this year. I have some things I'm working toward, and as things approach, I'll have to announce them. I'd do it now, but I worry about injury and such, so there's no sense in disappointing everyone. :)

Some other things are coming up this year.. More things I'm not announcing yet.

Yeah, so what the hell am I committing to here? Good question.

I'm starting a marathon training plan. It's a 20 week deal, and the first workout is tonight. (3 miles! Whoo hoo! I can do that one!)

I worry about my body taking the training stress, but I'm going to give it a chance.

I want to work on my core strength as well. This was one of those vague resolutions until I found out that Steve put together a 200 sit-ups plan. I'm doing it, already signed up. I'm stoked.

I also am going to re-try the 100 push-ups plan. Hopefully I won't break my arm in the home stretch this time. I think I'm healed up enough that I can endure it.

Other than that, I'm aiming to drink less this year. Last year was a banner year for drinking, so I should be able to come in under that, without a lot of effort.

I hope everyone has a great new year! Keep on rockin'!
