I made New Year’s resolutions this year, I think they lasted a week, maybe. I actually can’t even remember what they all were as the madness of January and February took hold of my brain and anything prior to that apparently dissipated. However, this weekend it was my birthday, and therefore it is now a new year for me, and instead of making another resolution I have little chance of keeping here are some tasks and challenges I have set myself for the coming year. I’m hoping that my love of crossing things off lists will help me achieve at least some of these.
1. Run a 10k
2. Move to London
