When I started Athlete in My Mind, it was founded on my addiction to running (literally, I love the high of finishing 13.1). Not only did that mean the organized sport, but also, "running" through life at warp speed--it's bat woman, no...wait, Wonder Woman! I was a runner throughout high school. Not on any teams, just for an after-school activity for fun-lol!! I'm a complete nerd, what can I say?
Just to catch a glimpse of the two past years in a few sentences:
I ran a few half marathons and some fun runs (I bet you didn't guess that)!
Emily and Kyra started growing up.
I became addicted to yoga.
We added an adorable furry friend, Einstein, to our family.
I got myself a new job, then decided I hated it and went my own direction. I now own my own company, Infinity Bouquets.
We, as a family unit, moved to a great San Diego, CA community.
I began remodeling our new house.
I got so busy in life I forgot to run, seriously, for about 6 months.
My grandfather passed away.
And then before I knew it, we were sitting around on December 31, 2016, watching Dick Clark's Rockin' New Years Eve, because we partied hard, with the new Christmas karaoke machine, pretending we were rock stars. At least our excuse for sitting at home was the winter rain storm passing through. It couldn't be the champagne induced state of mind...
So now it's 2017, and it's game time!!
My 2017 promises to be a time to step up to the plate and get with the glass that is half full, knock on the door of opportunity, put the icing on the cake, and knock that ball outta the field, kind of year!
I started with a New Years resolution to get me out of my funk. With this constant rain, it's going to be a tough start. Don't worry, I ate my black eyed peas for good luck. My mantra this year is: spend more quality time with my girls before they become teenagers and hate me. Oh, yeah, I almost forgot--and get outside and run my heart out!
What promises, plans or thoughts do you have in store for 2017?
