Currently doing Dry January as I usually do after New Year's. Maybe I'll do it for longer now, maybe not.

I also want to train for a marathon this year. Not sure which, but it would be nice to see if I could do it. The first test will be a ten miles in april and I'll see where it goes.

Maybe I'll do a physical exam somewhere soon to see what's going on in my body. I'm not having any problems but I'm curious if things will come up.

What about you?

Since I left the city, I probably end up only drinking 3-4 times a year, so that's been an inadvertent benefit. I like to drink on occasion still, but I have a general policy of never drinking at home. Since I can't go out much here, it naturally limits itself.

Active goals, I have been trying to get my weight back to what I was when I was in university (around 48 kg). Technically it might be a little bit low for my height, but I always felt most comfortable at that weight. I definitely have gained some weight as I have gotten older though.
