Happy New Year

Happy New Year!

I have a feeling that this is going to be my best year! 13 has always been a good number for me. The year has already started out very exciting. I signed up this morning for the Bone Island ironman distance triathlon on January 4th 2014. This will be my first ironman distance triathlon, which consists of a 2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike, and a 26.2 mile marathon.

While Bone Island taking my training into the end of the year for 2013, Linds is kicking off 2013 with her own huge goal. In 12 days Linds will be running the Disney Marathon! This will be her first full marathon and I am so incredibly proud and excited.

As many people do on New Year's Day we did a lot up cleaning up and refreshing around the house to start the year off on the best foot. As part of this, we took apart R's toddler bed and set up her first double bed! The monitor is gone, as is the diaper genie. In a way it is sad that she is growing up so fast, but it is also very exciting. R is so happy. I will also be getting back on the training wagon this evening with an easy paced run. I have been slack for the last two months since Beach-2-Battleship, but it is time to get moving again. For one, the spring will be here before I know it. Second, my pants are starting to get a little too tight!

So, for 2013 my goals are to keep life simple, be more consistent with my workouts, and enjoy everyday. 2013 will be better that good!
