I find that January is a good month to review the year before. December just gets too insane with the holidays and the gift shopping, friends moving across the country, and friends getting married. You get the idea.
And… you know how much I like lists. So here’s my 2013:
COOL:
tried the Kool-aid – completed 4 months of CrossFit
ran my fastest half marathon
saw my first article in print in Get Out There magazine
started my own business – SOLO Performance Coaching is officially born
completed my first S.E.R.E. Challenge
my best friend got engaged
became Female Champion at the Toronto Athletic Games
first female across the finish in Tough Mudder Toronto
Spartan Death Race (unofficial) finisher
my first Olympic triathlon
my first road marathon
became a Precision Nutrition mentor
be able to do 20 double-unders in a row
went to Burning Man
went to San Francisco and Boston for the first time, saw the huge sequoias!
got to teach at my beloved alma mater as a university professor
completed an epic road trip to Calgary
left my job as a college professor
landed a dream job as a health coach
LESS COOL:
wrist injury
hamstring injury [Solo, listen to your body!]
mom got sick [all good now]
lost a friendship
my other best friend moved across the country
my little brother moved across the country [… people! stop moving across the country! is it something I said?]
Not bad. Not bad at all.
Ah, who am I kidding? It’s freaking fantastic.
Here’s to an even better 2014.
YOUR TURN: What was your 2013 like?
