I hope you are making your list of challenges and adventures for 2010.  I really don’t believe in “resolutions” because they fade away all too fast.  Goal setting is quite a different story in my opinion and one sure way to keep you on track is to share your goals.

I hope you are making your list of challenges and adventures for 2010.  I really don’t believe in “resolutions” because they fade away all too fast.  Goal setting is quite a different story in my opinion and one sure way to keep you on track is to share your goals.

I turned 49 this year – yikes! and have an ambitious list for my “to do before 50″ list.  Here it is – you can all help me stick to it:

1.  Climb Denali (planned for June 2010 with my friend Lynn) – this also means lots of training.

2.  Do an expedition adventure race (this is more than 24 hours, up to 7 days) I have my eyes on the Desert Winds race in September, just have to convince my team.

3.  A whole list of work related items that I won’t bore you with, but know that all are under way.

4. Learn to skate ski – Scheduled for January 24 at Snoqualmie Pass.  Join us!

5.  Learn Spanish – registered for SCCC class on Thursday evenings.

6.  Travel to Vietnam/Cambodia for November 2010 (I want to turn 50 in Asia)

7.  Learn to make Pottery – have researched classes at Seward Park Clay Studio.  Targeting September.

8.  Get Scott to Dirt Camp in Whistler this summer.  The schedule is not yet posted, but we are going!

So, I have 8 big goals that should keep me busy through the end of next year.  It’s nice to have a November birthday, as it sets off my planning for the following year.

Join us at Hyak on January 24th if you are interested in learning Skate Skiing!  We will be there at 9am ish for a 10:30am lesson.
