I was going to make this a ‘210 Things to do in 2010′ list, but in looking for inspiration I stumbled upon a ‘101 things to do in 1001 days’ challenge. This seemed a lot more realistic so I’m going to give it a try!
Start Date: December 3rd, 2009
End Date: August 30th, 2012

1)Write 450 posts for this blog (40/450)

3)Run a marathon. This one was inspired by the contestants on ‘The Biggest Loser’ and my dreams to have Bob get all sweaty running the final mile with me. I’m pretty sure this is exactly how my marathon run will play out.

You have an amazing list. Best of luck in completing them!!
ReplyDeleteWow, you have also inspired me to do this! I gotta take some time and make up the list first... :)
ReplyDeleteLove your list - and that you're avoiding your housework! :-) I love the Olive Garden - I used to eat there a lot when I was studying in Canada. I wish they had one in England!
