Towards the end of 2013 I got it in my head to start and MBA Program. After meeting with the program administrator at the time I discovered if I did go to St. Kate's I would be the first male graduate of the MBA Program. Looking back on the first year its less of a big deal to me that I could be the first man to get the MBA there and more excited I made it half way.
I was supposed to have Fargo Marathon be my 6th marathon but then I was sick in February and March but also decided to not run because class was on Saturdays and I didn't want to miss class in fear of falling behind. Twin Cities Marathon was my 6th marathon. I almost didn't run it because I had been lazy all summer and a few friends said it was better to train for a last ditch effort vs. not even starting. I was able to finish the marathon on 7 weeks of training. As I ran the marathon I came across another couple that said its better to be a part of the DNF club vs. DNS. That is Did Not Finish vs. Did Not Start.
Seven year anniversary with my wife on the 29th of December!
January 4th will make 15 years at my current employer with 3 years at the current location. Longest time I've worked at one place in the same job, the longest I've worked in one place was 4 years but two different positions. Cray cray.
2015 should be an exciting year, this is what's planned:
Year 2 of the MBA, graduate in December but class done in January 16'
2 Marathons, Fargo and Twin Cities(if I hear back from Global Hero's I'll make it 4 marathons on the year because I want Twin Cities to be 5th TCM and 10th overall)
Make it a great year folks!
