Just When I thought I Couldn't...

I did!!

This week has been amazing and eye opening for me. I pushed my body to places I thought it could never go. Ifinally realized I CAN do anything I set my mind to.

This week I managed to log about 21 miles on the pavement as well as 6 hours of rolling. In my lifetime I have never done this much for myself and it feels good. Okay, I lied...my knees are a little sore but for all the wear and tear I put on my body, I'm pleased that my knees are the only things sore.

To this point I havent had a goal for myself; no competitions to get ready for so it was very easy for me to just follow the course I was on, doing the same things over and over. I decided for the new year that I am going to push those boundaries a little bit more than I did in 2010. I signed up for the Tallahassee Half Marathon (1st one), and I am going to have "the talk" with Felipe about competing in the Pan Ams or Mundials...for some reason, the words "World Cahmpion" sound good before my name.

For me it all boils down to a simple principal of putting it out there in the Universe and seeing what the Universe gives back. The Universes' only job is to take what we give it and multiply it ten or one hundred-fold (I forget) and give it back to us. Ultimately its up to us to decide what to do with whatever the Universe has given back.

The Universe told me nothing is impossible so I've decided to roll with that logic and make any dreams I have come true. For clarity, here are a few things I'm asking the Universe for:

- Complete Tallahasse Half Marathon
- Pan Ams or Mundial Champ
- Lasting friendships that mean as much to my friends as they do to me
- Physical Therapy License
- Exorcising of my demons (I realize this takes more than laying on a bed with my head spinning 360 degrees)
- Physical, emotional and spirtual health
- Comfort

If you ask me this is not a difficult list, however, i recognize that everything I've listed requires a good deal of work. I am hoping this is work I'm prepared to do.
