Diving into Risk

This year has been about risk for me. :)

I have risked feeling uncomfortable in my own skin by centering my life around becoming healthier instead of hiding out at home with my tv and a Cherry Coke.

I have risked trying new things in my classroom and they are WORKING (at least 85% of the time).

I have risked feeling like an idiot in front of Julie my trainer :)

I am taking the ultimate risk in my Kenpo class! I love my sensei and my pal Jamie who goes with me to not only self defense but the adult class. She and I are learning to say the least. I am however frustrated because I can't remember the names to all of the things in the adult class so that has slowed my Kenpo journal progress.

This weekend I am taking another LEAP and purchasing my first road cycle and I can't wait! I am counting down in my mind and boy oh boy am I excited! I cannot wait to get out on the road and explore in a whole new way.

To say the least I have a new found love of adventure. This summer I want to race and I told Julie (my trainer) that I want to become a runner. I am going to focus on that this summer. Because by the end of 2012 I want to do a sprint triathlon and be a certified spin instructor. Step by Step, mile by mile, and minute by minute I will accomplish these goals.

Several times a week I hear this mantra... "spinning will make you strong believe in that"... I do believe in that and am so proud of all that I have accomplished since Christmas and all that is left to be accomplished.

Next step choosing to risk a master's degree...
