New Year's Resolutions

I set the following new year's resolutions for 2010. How did I do?

1. Run three marathons--I ran 3 full and 8 halfs
2. At least two of them have to be international ones--three were international races
3. Better my biking time by .5 mph in a triathlon--bettered time by .5 in a May triathlon
4. Write the draft of my book--92,000 words done!
5. Go out for New Year's Eve--going out with three friends

Highlights of 2010:
1. Accomplishing my goal of running a marathon on every continent
2. Getting a lot of press for it. I am even on the cover of a magazine.
3. Going brunette--I do miss being blonde though...
4. Running in China, Peru, South Africa
5. Running my new favorite half marathon in Santa Barbara, CA.

Goals for 2011:
1. Doing an ultra marathon
2. Bettering my bike time by another .5 mph in one triathlon
3. Completing my book--almost done :)
4. GANJ (This is cryptic for personal reasons)
5. Letting go of something personal that needs to be let go

2010

New Year's Eve was quite forgettable. I went to see Joel McHale's stand up and that's about it. I'm ready for 2010.

New Year's Resolutions:
1. Run 3 marathons
2. One of those will be an international marathon
3. Bring up my bike time in a triathlon by .5 mph
4. Go to a party for this year's New Year's Eve
5. Find a literary agent

We'll see how these resolutions go :)

Happy 2010!
