So last Saturday was my first half marathon for 2017, and boy is there room for improvement!

Not that I had any delusions that I'd be getting a PR this race. I've been lazy and dealing with foot troubles most of the winter. I also didn't make a lot of good decisions that maybe would've helped my time either. I clocked a 2:58:48, which is not my slowest half, but the slowest half was preceded by a 5k so that one gets an asterisk.

Like I said, I made a lot of dumb mistakes, and I know better, but even if I was disappointed in my decision-making capabilities, the race was still awesome.

I had terrific company, and my friend even PR'd her half time! Of course, she finished about 20 minutes before me, and had to wait in the cold, but that's what friends are for right?

So the bullet journal is not a new thing. It's been around. In fact, I started using it last year, but it didn't stick around.

I started my bullet journal in March of last year, after I was feeling overwhelmed with all the sources of information I had stored in various places. I was drowning a little, because I would constantly forget things even though I knew that I'd put the information somewhere. Unfortunately, after May I stopped using my journal. I don't know why, but the journal sat dormant for the next 7 months.
