Nine Resolutions for 09

I love the new year & I love new years resolutions. I don't know if it is because it gives you a clean slate or a chance to start over and do better than the year before. But every year since I can remember I've always had & made new years resolutions. This year I've tried to have more resolutions that aren't triathlon related. So, with the new year just hours away I thought I'd share with you guys my resolutions for 2009.

Nine Resolutions for 09

  1. Take Mrs Tri Runner on one real date every month.
  2. Take my little girl on one Daddy Daughter Date per month.
  3. Teach Sarah Jane how to swim
  4. Teach Sarah Jane how to ride a bike without training wheels
  5. Read Three Books this year. (I know that sounds sad but I'd rather be running than reading)
  6. Run At least Three Marathons
  7. Break 6 Hours in a Half Ironman - Current PR is around 6:45
  8. Finish a Century Ride - I've Never gone more than 60 miles on my bike at one time
  9. Break 20 minutes in a 5K - Current PR is 20:50

So, if you got and ideas on good books, fun marathons to run, or different ideas for dates let me know. Until then I'm going to get ready to watch the Ball Drop. Happy New Years!

I'm not a big reader either, but I'm reading Crazy Love by Francis Chan right now. I know Matt would definitely recommend it too.

Thanks! When I do read it has to be Non-Fiction. I got to make the books that I read count.
