Another Year is over.
Wow, I cannot believe its been a year since I have written on this blog. Lots of changes this year for me. Where do I start. 2013 is an odd number year and I always have my mind set that those years are not always good luck for me. But this year was different in a lot of ways. I am hoping that 2014 will be an even better year for me.
This year was definitely the year of changes. I broke up with my girlfriend of 4 years in March and I feel pretty good about that. It makes it easier when the love just disappears and fades away.
I finally purchased a house after several months of looking. I got really lucky to have bought a very near perfect rehab house totally remodeled in a semi-decent neighborhood. I say semi-decent neighborhood because it is still in Chicago but in a better NW side of the city. It is a 5 bedroom, 3 bathroom house with lots of room, for just me.

My happiness level was even this year. Not a lot of ups and downs.
Health wise, I had a lot of migraines and sinus infection more then usual. My running was almost not there at all. The biggest issue I struggle this year was motivation. The biggest part in pushing yourself to do something is motivation. I realized what a huge impact motivation has on your goals.
It is beyond me to understand why I lack such motivation to run and workout. I did have some motivation for cycling and did a few trips.
I have been fighting the lack of motivation for the last 2 years now and feel very stuck and not able to push myself like I used to.
This year will be a different year. This is the year where I am going to get my motivation back. I am going to start running marathons and doing more adventure traveling.
My first goal is to run the Rock and Roll Half marathon in DC in March. After that, I am planning to run several other marathons. I figured I just need to jump right in and not look back. I need to kick start my motivation and just DO IT.
So how was your New Year? Any plans and goals for 2014?
Cheers
