#10YearChallenge is one of the latest trending challenges in social media recently and I’m fortunate that my blog already existed 10 years ago so this is easy.  #challengeaccepted

Ten years ago, January, 2009.  That was when I had my first ever trail run and that is when the picture on the left was taken.  Life was so much simpler then, although I did have a Garmin Forerunner 405 to add motivation!  Fast forward January, 2019, Fitbit Charge 2 is my 24/7 tracker, lesser mileage on the road but more weights in the gym!  My love-affair for tights is also returning, especially on leg day.  Photo on the right taken just a few days ago.

For some, this challenge may be for narcissism, an unconscious help to train facial recognition software, or just to go with the flow, but I think whatever reasons you may have for participating, it’s a good opportunity to look back at the past decade of your life and evaluate if it brings you closer to your goals for the next decade!
