I've started New Year's day the same way for the past 15 years, by listening to "New Year's Day" by U2. First song of the day, the first song I play each New Year's day. Today was no exception - for those of you who don't know the lyrics, here you go:
All is quiet on New Year's Day.
A world in white gets underway.
I want to be with you, be with you night and day.
Nothing changes on New Year's Day.
On New Year's Day.
I... will be with you again.
I... will be with you again.
Under a blood-red sky
A crowd has gathered in black and white
Arms entwined, the chosen few
The newspaper says, says
Say it's true, it's true...
And we can break through
Though torn in two
We can be one.
I... I will begin again
I... I will begin again.
Oh, oh. Oh, oh. Oh, oh.
Oh, maybe the time is right.
Oh, maybe tonight.
I will be with you again.
I will be with you again.
And so we are told this is the golden age
And gold is the reason for the wars we wage
Though I want to be with you
Be with you night and day
Nothing changes
On New Year's Day
On New Year's Day
On New Year's Day
So, other than listening to this every New Year's day, what else will I be doing during 2010?
Completing the Contact Triwoman 3-9-3 event on Saturday 23 January 2010 at Narrow Neck.
Completing my fitness instructor qualification through NZIHF by 28 February 2010 (one month early).
Watching Ironman NZ at Taupo on 6 March 2010 and supporting my friend Sean who is competing again (dude, you rock. Seriously!).
Completing my first half ironman (the Auckland Half) on 20 March 2010. I don't want to place, I just want to finish!
Attending FILEX in Sydney from 30 April to 2 May 2010. Then travelling down to Melbourne for a few days.
Completing a certificate in sports training and development by 7 May 2010, through SIT.
Achieving 20% body fat by 30 June 2010.
One top secret but very life-changing goal at 1pm on 3 July 2010. Shhhhh!!! Can't tell you, so please don't ask on here!! Email me and ask me that way instead!
Watching Ironman Hawaii (and Lance Armstrong compete in it) on 9 October 2010, LIVE, in Kona, Hawaii!!!
So, people, what will you be doing in 2010?
