Looking forward to 2013

As 2012 finishes up I am starting to look forward to 2013 to see what I want to do. Part of this was motivated by having to put in my lottery entry for the 2013 Cherry Blossom 10 miler. It made me think about what I did in 2012 and that made me think about what I want to do in 2013.

So for 2012 I completed 3 races that were 10 miles or more - the Cherry Blossom, Marine Corps Historic Half Marathon and the Navy-Air Force Half Marathon. I think for 2013 I want to get that up to at least 5 races of 10 miles or more. I did win a spot in the Cherry Blossom for 2013 so in addition to that I am thinking the Marine Corps 17.75K, the Marine Corps Historic Half (Hospital Hill is a great challenge) and then I would like to do the Army 10 miler in the fall along with either of the Navy-Air Force Half (assuming they do it this year) or go for the full Marine Corps Marathon. The Navy-Air Force would be great since I would get to do a 10 miler or more for each of the branches in one year but the full would be a great thing to do before I hit 50.

So outside of my races I am planning to finish the work on the Triumph so I can get it on the road and also to do some upgrades on the Wrangler so I can get that off the road :-)

With work, making time for some travelling with La and then time with the kids, both local and in Ottawa, it should be a busy year.

But I am looking forward to it!
