What were your successes this year?
I ran a marathon. I was overweight and out of shape in January. At the encouragement of a coworker, I ran 5 days a week from March to November, and successfully completed the Philly Marathon in 4h10m10s.
That same week, I landed an awesome job, and hopefully left the Military-Industrial Complex for good.
What did you learn?
A little work every day adds up to a hurricane. The value of getting nudged in the right direction, and by extension, the value of surrounding yourself with people who will nudge you in the right direction. And hitting the wall is about as painful as I remember appendicitis to be.
What do you hope to achieve next year?
I want to run two marathons. I want to run one of them in under 3h45m. I want to create something that lots of people use. I want to make a name for myself.
