64. Watch 10 of the top 100 movies

I just finished my 10th movie from this list. It is my 33rd out of the top 100. I am thinking I will try to make it to about 50 by the end of my 1001 days. I hadn't heard of a lot of those movies. Some were great while others were not so great.

29 goals down!

Bowling and the Museum

I just noticed that I hadn't blogged about going bowling or going to the Children's Museum at Navy Pier. Luckily Melissa blogged about them and saved me some time.
We had a lot of fun and hope to do both activities again in the near future.

28 goals down!

101 Goals in 1001 Days

The thought of doing this again excites me. After completing (almost) my first list of goals I am happy to be doing it again. 2014 seems like a long time from now, and I am excited to see how much I will grow in the 1001 days that it takes to complete this list.
This blog originally was my way of journaling my thought on my quest to complete my first marathon. Now it is my way of keeping track of my goals and maintaining accountability for my progress throughout the 1001 days.
Thanks for your support!
