My 2012 resolutions were generally successful. On one item, I failed big time. Pledging to make a 48,000-word contribution to a book, I only wrote 32,000. It's going to take longer than I thought!
My other commitments fared better:
Results: Hiked over 400 miles. The picture to the left is of Ooh-Aah Point (a great name!) within the Grand Canyon.
Goal: Bike 600 miles.
Results: Rode over 1000 miles (including a few with a broken collarbone!)
Goal: Lose 30 pounds:
Results: Lost 30 pounds (more at one point, but a holiday binge set me back)
These resolutions seem silly at times, but frankly I would sit around and watch movies all day without some objectives.
For 2013: Lose 10 pounds, walk 400 miles, ride 1000, and write 24,000 words. And ignore the Mayans.
