Journaleers homework

[marathoner452]

20 years ago I . . . was two years old and an only child and sat at the kitchen table wondering who would sit in that seat across from me. 2 1/2 years later my twin sisters were born.

10 years ago I . . . got inspired to run marathons by watching someone collapse finishing the 1996 Olympic Marathon in Atlanta, Georgia. This is quite some sport I got myself into.

5 years ago I . . . graduated from high school.

3 years ago I . . . ran the Frederick Marathon in 4:55, my second of five marathons (so far).

1 year ago I . . . graduated from college, almost went to Africa, and accepted an AmeriCorps position with the Red Cross.

So far this year I . . . ran a marathon PR of 15 minutes with a 4:14 finish at NCR in November of 2005 and saw New Orleans for the first time in 19 years.

Yesterday I . . . had a free Caribbean Jerk burrito at California Tortilla.

Today I . . . have been productive at work which I use to justify time taken out to write in my journal.

Tomorrow I will . . . teach Cub Scouts about emergency preparedness and wilderness safety.

In the next year I will . . . decide where I want to go after my AmeriCorps term is up. Decisions, decisions.

I'm glad I've been a part of all that in the past year, and am looking forward to seeing what the next year and beyond will bring. :-)

Are you still in town? I haven't been online as much because I moved recently. I haven't forgotten about that drink. Send me an email, and I'll try to hook up with you somewhere.
