2012 to 2013!

So I’ve been meaning to blog..and well…intention didn’t really translate into any posts. But no apologies here! It’s been a busy time!

I just looked at my last post and that was when I was 3 months out from my first 100miler! Hmm..yeah….so it’s now 3 WEEKS AWAY!!! Pretty sure I remember when I put that post down too! Time flies and now we’re in a whole new year!

A quick look back at 2012!! A lot happened. On the non running front….new living space, hubby lost a job, found a job and got promoted and of course we adopted our sweet little fur baby, Stella! On the running front…distance PRs, a big fat DNF at my first 50miler, my first 50mi weekend of running, two overnight 30milers and getting to know some amazing people who inspire and motivate me everyday!!

So 2013 is here! And what goals do I have for 2013? Well…at this point there is only one running related goal and that is to cross that finish line at Rocky Raccoon 100 at some point on February 3, 2013!! Training has been a mixed bag and I’m where I am right now. It’s three weeks to go and taper time! Time to get my body rested up, little aches and pains healed up and most of all get ready mentally!! I won’t lie..this is the tough part in all this right now! Lots of visualizing and mentally preparing for what I’m getting ready to do!

Beyond running..time will tell what life will bring! 2012 when it was all said and done was overall a very positive year and my goal for this year is to build on that and make 2013 an even better year for our family!!
