New Year, new goals

It's been a while since this blog has been updated.  A lot has happened since we last wrote on this.  I'll let Cassie do those updates when she has time... I'm not much of a writer.

Anyway, I thought I would write my new year's resolutions on here.  As most of you know I am training to run the St. George Marathon to qualify for the Boston Marathon in 2014.  My goal towards that is to run a marathon this year.  Not sure which one yet though.

I am also on a Ragnar team for this year's Wasatch Back.  I have three goals for this.  My first one is have a mile pace of 7 minutes and 30 seconds or better.  Second, be down to 150 pounds by June.  My last goal is to run, not walk, the "Ragnar Hill."  A little about the last goal, everyone I've talked to about this hill say they can't run the whole distance.  It's 3.2 miles, a little over a 5K, but you gain about 1500 feet in elevation. If you want to see the actual distance and elevation change click here.  I want to be able to run the entire distance.  I love running hills and it just motivates me more when people say I won't be able to do it.

My last goal is to have completely get off pop.  I've been doing well with quitting Dr. Pepper, I haven't had one in 2 years.  Now I'm hoping to get off pop completely. 

Happy New Year to everyone.  This is going to be a fun year for us here.
