Ciao, 2011!

Top

Ring dips at CrossFit Metropolis2011 was a big year. I ran the New York marathon and the Vienna half. My sister became an Ironman. I tossed an old lady. I participated in my first CrossFit competition - and then did a few more with Team Metropolis. I won a trampoline. I wrote a poem. There were lots of PRs and epic fails. And the year's going out with a bang - a ginormous bruise/scrape from (yet another) box jump fail this morning.

Resolutions really aren't my thing. Goals I like, though. So, here's what's on the shortlist for 2012:

To beat my best half marathon time (1:57:36) in the NYC Half in March.
To do a muscle up.
A 200+ lb deadlift (still at 190...since March).
To string together more than two consecutive double-unders. This is long overdue.
To do Fran as Rx'd in under 30 minutes.

I'll keep you posted. Happy New Year, everyone!
