An update on the New Year’s resolutions I didn’t even realize I made:
Backtrack to the beginning of December. NY resolution talk started on tumblr. I thought for about five seconds, realized I wanted to start making my bed every morning, decided it was stupid to wait until the first of the year, started the next day. Haven’t missed a morning since.
Now backtrack to New Year’s eve/day. Everyone was posting all these awesome year in review posts with fancy graphs of all the miles they ran. I had no idea how many I ran. I wanted to know. So I decided to start actually tracking my miles on Daily Mile. It’s already paying off because I know I ran 122 miles in January which makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
Finally, backtrack to my first day back at work after taking a few vacation days, friends visiting, a surprise trip to Kentucky, and Race Epic. I was a little frazzled (okay, more frazzled than usual) so I decided to sit at my kitchen (run gear storage) table and eat breakfast. And you know what, it was nice, so I decided to do it every day. And I have.
In conclusion (and my usual poetic fashion): you wanna change shit, change it, don’t wait for a new year or month or day.
