A little Adventure this Weekend

Photos from my visit to London

I think this photo is a must when visiting London. I just appreciate that my boss wasn't too embarassed to take it for me :)












I woke up at 5am to do my long run while visiting London. Who knew that most of the path along the river doesn' open until 8am! I was lucky to find a couple spots to stop and take photos of London'd burbs











Another running photo. this one of the London Tower Bridge at sunrise. I thought is was just so beautiful and made my run that much more worthwhile

2011 Resolutions/Goals

- become a master bread maker - who doesn't want fresh homemade bread every week?!
- relearn how to cross-country ski - this requires purchasing some skis and SNOW
- join a gym and go at least 3 days a week (unless the resolution above this one works out well)
- create a 'rainy day' fund
- Max. out my 401k contribution - I'll thank myself later for this one
- write more letters!
- and blog updates
- find a running group when the weather gets back up above 40 degrees
- finally decided if an actuarial position is what I want to do AND take the first exam if it is
- *added* learn how to use a bulky knitting machine
