Goals for 2023

Last year's goals were a lot of numbers, but this year's have some binary ones mixed in:
- see Zara
- finish Mt. Vesuvio Ultramarathon
- 50 books
- German B2 certification
- race 4 more cantons
- visit 2 new countries
- race in 4 more countries
My first goal is a very personal one concerning my youngest daughter who I hadn't had any communication with for over a year before she texted me New Year's Eve. I made this list before that, and this goal seemed perhaps impossible then. Now, less so.
My second goal I have already started training for, but it's definitely a reach. I know I can make it 50 km in under 8 hrs (c.f. Corner Canyon in 2019), but never a race of that distance with so much uphill. I am thinking that this will be a better focus for my training than the 25 km/week and getting under 90 kg goals that I had last year.
The third goal is one I have every year and, like last year, often fall short of. Still, I learn alot reading books along the way.
The next goal is an academic one - a category I didn't have last year. I think that this should be achievable (as opposed to C1 German, which would be a reach) and it's all I need anyway.
Like last year I also have some travel goals and the last 3 are these. Like last year I think they should be not so hard to achieve and I already have plans toward them as part of my training plan for Mount Vesuvius.
