Happy New Year!

Happy New Year! Without further ado, here are my New Year's resolutions. I'll be checking in at least once a week for an update!

Running
  • Run the Las Vegas RnR Marathon [without getting injured!]

  • ... And make at least 1 of those outside [Hi, I'm Gidget and I'm a treadmill addict]
  • Keep track of mileage
  • Run at least 1 5k
  • ... And at least 1 10k
  • Stretch before and after every run
  • RICE when you suspect even a hint of injury - don't get screwed again!
  • Roll after every run over 5 mile and every other run that feels at all tight
