run 2.4 kms in under 15 minutes
Finally given permission to...

... run without restrictions! My hip has mostly healed and hurts only now and again when overused but for the most part, I am good to go.

I haven’t really ran in over a year and I really need to work on the running! I will be waiting to begin my official training on January 2nd, when the gym reopens!

Can. Not. Wait.

I actually miss running!



swim 1000 metres in 21 minutes
Today is the day...

... that I will find out what my current timing is. My arm has finally healed enough from the injury that I think I can finally start focusing on this goal!

I really want to swim 1000 metres in 21 minutes!

So, tomorrow I’ll post the results of my first session and we’ll work our way to my goal!!

SO EXCITED!



become fluent in french (read all 3 entries…)
Slowly getting there!

I’ve spent the past three months in french classes at work and after one more class, I will be able to write my test in french for the government exam. If I pass that, I will cross myself off in having accomplished this list! I may not be able to take that course until March, 2012 but it will be a challenge to keep speaking it/working with grammar until then!

But, I’m happy that I now understand about 75% of whatever french people speak, and each day that can increase a little bit!
