Goal for 2010!

This year my one and only goal is to run 1,000 miles. The way I figure it, I will need to run an average of 3 miles per day...if I want to take any days off I will need to run more on other days in order to keep my average up. I made this goal for the following reasons:

1. My health--my mom had a heart attack last March, and heart disease runs rampant in my family--so this is primary.
2. Anxiety--I am just purely a nicer person after I run--it is that plain--my anxiety decreases, and my family likes me more! :)
3. My dog--she loves running!
4. A lot of my best ideas come when I run.
5. I have never set such an unreachable goal--so when I finish this, I will feel more confident and able to take on other "impossible" tasks. Doesn't running 1,000 miles sound impossible?

Each day that I run, I am going to give a little lowdown about my run and the miles I have gone. I am hoping by making this public, that I might be more inclined to get off my butt and finish this thing! Wish me luck and much perseverance!
