some realistic goals

i've decided to set some realistic goals for myself and one that is just a bit out there.

it boils down to this: i want to be healthy, i want to eat local, i want to live slow. i want to enjoy each day and find surprises in unlikely places. i want to eschew mindless materialism and focus on what i really want.

with that in mind i am setting the following goals for myself.
  • walk every day for at least 30 minutes
  • spend ≤ 20$ each week at the farmer's market for fresh, local, groceries
  • strive for a gluten-light diet
  • remove soda from my vocabulary
  • reduce processed food and sugar intake
  • bicycle to work 3x a week
  • train to run a half-marathon next spring
that last one is big but i'm going to try for it.
three years ago i participated in a half-marathon and getting ready for that was great for me, i'd like to become a runner again and i think that is an excellent long-term goal to have ahead of me.

we start this saturday with a trip to the farmer's market.
