Reflecting on 2018

I have been at my job for a year and a half which seems like a complete dream. I feel like I sat down at my desk on June 1, 2017....and suddenly woke up in December 2018.

This year has felt jammed packed...with work, running, friends, travels, etc. I ran my 13th marathon. I've explored my city. I celebrated my 9 year anniversary. I traveled to Pittsburgh.

My instagram top 9 (I think this has to with number of likes)

I climbed a mountain.

I have made some great friends in the running community.

And I have built my team at work into something that I never thought was possible back when I was sitting alone in my office, overworked and overwhelmed. This year I have thrown myself into every aspect of my life. Sometimes I have fallen flat on my face. However, when I achieve my goals, it is the greatest feeling, more worthwhile because of how hard I worked.

This next year I want to live with no regrets and no excuses. I had to build a department from nothing and start over in a new city. I know how to work hard, to the point of sleep deprivation and tears. Do I regret it? Not a second.

At this exact moment, I'm exactly where I need to be.
