Very excited to say that I ticked off one of my goals today. I got my first Dan black belt in taekwondo! Even though my kalma routine left something to be desired (how did I drop them… Twice!) I still made it. Very very excited to have that belt with my name on it. And thrilled that my eight year old daughter made it though the grading with me.

And I am on track for some of my other goals. I got some swim coaching, and I’m in the zone, ready to train in earnest for my triathlon in October. A bit worried about what I need to do in the next 12 weeks to bring my half marathon time down under 2 hours. And I think we are pretty much guaranteed a spot in the O30 Women Div 1 finals this year. We are even starting to think we might be in the running to win. How exciting. I would be super thrilled to play Champion of Champions for the district even just the once!

Lots of things to tick off before I turn 50 – still a few years to go though. Phew!
