Things I learned while offroading:
-I'm a better driver than I give myself credit for.
-The Jeep can handle a lot more than I give it credit for.
-No matter how many times I'm told that the noise is "just the rock sliders," rock on metal is a pretty terrible sound.
-ATV riders and Jeep people at offroad parks are kinda like skiers and snowboarders.
-While I had a good time, I'm more than happy to leave offroading to the "professionals."

#1/4: Start Couch to 5k.
Couch to 5k is exactly what it sounds like- a running program that theoretically gets you off the couch and able to run a 5k in just 8 weeks. While I have started this program about, say, five times, I've yet to actually finish it and have never run a 5k race. So, on my list it went. I started this morning by completing 1/4 of #1 on my list- start Couch to 5k. In blustery wintery conditions. Crazy or committed? Either way, complete.
