NY resolutions

Post by Sandy Beach »

So, it's the twenty ten Olympics in BC and new year's resolution time. Many people resolve to get more fit, lose weight and control spending. Why not combine it, by spending more money per week on activity/exercise (ie. yoga, swimming, hockey, etc.) than the amount you spend on eating out (and drinking alcohol)...especially on crappy fast mcfood. Think of how fit you'll be by summer time.
If you smoke, imagine just how much you can save up for gear if you quit now :idea:

Here here. Pushloops have been on my to-do list for a few years now. Probably need to up my TOW by 200% to be in a position to go for them, but what good is a goal if its not lofty. Also, in solidarity with GWIND, I too will spend more money on alcohol this year.

NY Resolutions

My new year's resolution is to get 60+ sessions in 2010. I have the right gear, just have to prioritize properly.

I'd like to get a long distance session in, Ross bay around the corner down to Agate or IV or Bazan. Also more racing at Nitinat this year. I'll bring the bouys and stoke, just need people to join in......more weekends at Nitinat is definitely on the menu!
Good Times,
BOBSON!!

I know what ya mean, JL...I'm hoping to survive Sam's 'terrible 3 and 4's' this year. Everything is no, and opposite of what we ask. Grrr!
I'm in search of a preschool that can take him on one of my days off, so, I can release my frustration on the water and kite or windsurf during the week more :)
Yeahhh, Bobson, four months 'til Nitinat...I'll race ya (my little gear against your RBG). Guess, I first gotta get my gybes down without having to waterstart everytime.

Gybes are overrated, true hot shots waterstart every time in order to cool off.
