- I ran my first half marathon. This time last year I'd just started my proper half marathon training, and the finish line seemed so far away, on so many levels.
- I ran my second half marathon. …and it was totally different. On so many levels!
- I got my barcode scanned by PSH CBE at the end of my 50th parkrun at Bushy's 10th anniversary. If you know parkrun, you'll understand quite how amazing it was.
- I ran a marathon.
It feels almost wrong just typing that. But yes, I actually did it. It was one of the best experiences of my life.
- I finished uni. Finally. For one reason or another, I've been at uni a full 8 years since I left school. I've got 3 degrees. Don't ask. But it's finally over.
- I got a job. Hooray!! Starting the job is a story for 2015 (eek!), but I'm pretty darn pleased with the post I landed.
- I waved goodbye to flat sharing. I loved living with my sister and her boyfriend (and their cat), we made a happy quartet. But I love living with just my lovely man, all by ourselves, out in the quiet suburbs.
- I started learning how to sew. I discovered that I enjoy making dresses way more than buying them. And that making a dress for each new event is deeply addictive.
- I also discovered vegan food. …and that it is a) really nice and b) makes you feel amazing. Meat is something we mostly save for weekends now. I rave about quinoa and chia seeds and tofu and almond milk. I have morphed into something I never thought I would become…
So, 2014 was a totally epic year. But I'm stupidly excited about 2015. Because now I know I can do all those awesome things, I have the confidence to go out and do even more awesome things. Like triathlon...
