Read 12 books with a variety of topics, genres, and styles. I finished a pretty random book that I mentioned in an earlier post, The Spanish Bow, which is a historical fiction story about a cellist during the Spanish Revolution and his struggles going from playing for the Queen to fighting for the struggle of freedom. It was a pretty easy read and one I’d recommend if you like music and/or Spain. This is book #3 for this year! Check out the other ones at my Book Page.
Complete a Triathlon Square Lake Short Course, September 10. 0.5 Mile Swim 16.5 Mile Bike 5 Mile Run. I ran 34.4 miles this month, 3 less than January (February is a few days shorter though!) I also did 1/4 mile swim and 75 minutes on the bike. Making progress on the running side.
Finish this YouVersion devotional plan (Bible Study). Keeping at it. They are very short, one or two verses with a paragraph reflection so it doesn’t take a lot of time, which makes it easy to do! It would only be easier if the RSS function worked properly or if it was e-mailed to me on a daily basis.
Make a substantial change to one of my programs at work. I’ve finally bit the bullet and we have started using a social entrepreneurship curriculum to get some kids creating their own businesses that have a positive social impact. So far the biggest struggles have been trying to monetize the project ideas and getting them to do the hard reason to show why their project is needed and will work. We are still in the research phase so hopefully that will change!
Blog Regularly I’ve been blogging in my continued variety of places. I’m content with how the month went. I would have liked to have written more here, but I had some posts with some substance at my neighborhood blog. As Nadia has gotten older she’s been wearing a lot of the same clothes and such so I’ve not been taking quite as many pictures of her. This is one of my favorites.
Learn how to use my digital camera and experiment with its features. I can’t recall making any progress on this one. Though I did pick up a few magazines and continue to read this blog.
The most viewed post of February 2011, Curing Plantar Fasciitis, again. Number two was Treating Plantar Fasciitis, but a surprise number 3 was my post about Twin Cities Running Stores.
