Goals

Do you ever have a great idea of something that you would like to accomplish that is a larger task than anything in your normal routine?  Having a goal and accomplishing it is an awesome feat.  The people I admire most in my life have had concrete goals that they have worked hard to accomplish.  One of those people is my little brother, Rob.  He is in medical school right now after many years of hard work to get there.  Ever since we were teenagers I remember that he wanted to be a doctor.  He will see his goal fulfilled in a short year and half.  

I love running for precisely that reason:  it gives me something to work toward, to reach a personal best in something tangible!  I have signed up for another race and training for it feels good.  I hope to someday be faster than I am right now and I will get there if I continue to be consistent in my pursuit of it.  

Now I have made a new personal goal for myself.  This goal I don't want to tell anyone about right now in fear that I won't follow through.  I am excited to do it and am hoping to keep my enthusiasm for it as time goes on.  This goal will help me in more ways than almost anything else.  I have great faith and hope in this one!
