New years resolution.

Hey I'm Dave. The one Kim has been talking about. As I am typing on a phone, please forgive any grammar or auto correct errors. So I have been instructed to talk about goals in this entry. So here it is.

1. Keep up with Kim on a half marathon.
2. Lead a 5.12a
3. Apply for a job in law enforcement.
4. Summit 2 major peaks in Utah.
5. Get back into racing mountain bikes
6. Save enough to take Kim somewhere tropical.

Kim tells me I have 6 months to do all of this, so I imagin you will be getting an update sooner or later. Enjoy.

It's time to set some goals

I am not the new years resolution type but I do believe in goal setting, tracking, and reaching.  I know it's just about the same thing other than I like to stick to shorter-term goals.  I am sticking my goals on the blog because  I know I will be able to find them when the achievement date rolls around and there is the whole internet world out there that can hold me to them (who am I trying to kid, I know just about nobody will see, read, care, or hold me to any of them but I can convince myself otherwise....hopefully).  Lets do this:
  1. Read the whole Book of Mormon cover to cover
  2. Finally pass Math 1050
  3. Save money (I have to talk over the amount with Mr. Larsen)
  4. Run a 5k in under 23 minutes
  5. Run a 1/2 marathon in under 2 hours  
  6. Graduate from aerial fabric level 3 and move on to level 4 (yea for learning drops!) This is going to require some serious muscle building. 
  7. Stop being a baby about lead climbing and lets say.... lead a 5.10b no a 5.10c (Oh, I just climbed my first 5.11a top rope! Big deal to me, little deal to others and that is a-ok.) 
  8. TRY (I get to define that word in this application) a mountain bike race
  9. I want to be involved in more service projects and to make that measurable lets say 100 hours worth
I think that will do it.  Now, all of these goals are for a 6 month time block ending on July7 (our wedding anniversary).  Also, if I think of some that I have forgotten to include I will add them but there is no changing the ones already posted allowed.  
I am going to enlist da hubby to write on the blog as well and I think that his list of goals is a great way to start him off.  I'll have to see if he is up for it.....Stay tuned.
