Ski down a double black diamond
Steamboat Powder Cats

It was frightening, but I did it. We went backcountry skiing with Steamboat Powder Cats. the provide the equipment, lunch and some instruction. Everyone else I went with was a more advanced skier than me which added to my. When I do this again I will definitely do a lot more lunges and squats. My quads and core were not conditioned for this. I do plan to do it again.



attend the opera
The Marriage of Figaro

This is a comedy written by Mozart. It is in Italian but the Ellie Caulkins Opera House in Denver has translation subtitles that make it easier to enjoy the show. Make sure to read the synopsis in the program before the lights go down. I think you would need to appreciate music and especially a good soprano to enjoy the opera as it is entirely sung.



run a marathon
Half Marathon

On October 9th, the day after my birthday, I ran a half marathon in support of an amazing non-profit (Edge of Seven) . It was great! I was incredibly slow, but it proved to myself that I can do anything I set my mind to and I have some sort of reward and incentive system. In the case of my half marathon it was supporting a great cause and asking my friends and family to support me. The full marathon is on the way…perhaps in 2012.
