Goals
- Get back to running! A few super cold weeks here in Philly kept me inside and I fell of my workout wagon a bit. Need to get back on it.
- Begin meditating for 7 minutes every day. I attended a meditation workshop over the weekend (more on that later) and am ready to make meditating a daily habit.
