How does one skim through 365 days and take something away from it? Here's what I took away from the year 2010.
Lessons learned:
- I don't drink enough water, and consume too much caffein
- Trust is hard to obtain, and even harder to maintain.
- Facebook is like The Force- it can be used for good, but there's also a dark side to it.
- We rarely get to decide who we fall in love with, but it usually happens when we least expect it, or want it
- When we are at our worst, our friends are at their best.
- Never EVER drink Four Loko, especially on an empty stomach with other drinks
- Don't try to compete in a 100 mile race in Colorado when you live at sea level.
My Favorite Days of 2010:
- October 29th
- June 6th, midnight, summiting Woodstock Mountain and seeing the city lights below at mile 93 of the Old Dominion 100 Miler.
- August 21st: summitting the highest mountain in Colorado. Mt. Elbert (14,440 ft)
- November 20th
- November 7, pacing my friend James to his first marathon finish
- June 6th, me and my sister surprising our parents with a sweet 40th anniversary weekend
People I became closer to:
- Leesey Smuland Clark, Erica Dove, Dan Hanlon, Maria Pennington, Ryan Payne, John Park, my Tuesday Night Fight Club guys. Of course there are many friends I was already close with that are not on this list, You guys were already awesome friends.
New and Old
- Traded in my 2006 Toyota Corolla for a 2002 Jaguar X-Type
- Moved from Bridgewater, VA to Weyers Cave VA
Least Favorite Part of the Year
- All those freakin' 100 degree and humid days last summer, and all that stupid snow at the beginning of the year
