My ten goals, and what progress I've made (two week update):
- Run a half-marathon (21KM) in a decent time (less than 2 hours). Moved on to week six of C25k, but I've been sick (some nasty flu thing), so I haven't done as much as I should have over two weeks.
- Achieve a moderate level of strength; 30 pushups, 60 situps, and 10 pullups should do as a start (based on the Australian Army's Commando Physical Fitness Entry Requirements). Some small progress, but nothing significant.
- Be at a half-decent martial artist. No Progress.
- Shoot a rifle and pistol accurately. Certification for the rifle safety course has arrived, and I've joined the local club. Need to get the paperwork filled out and sent this week.
- Have a decent knowledge of First Aid. Started reading a wilderness first-aid manual I got with a first-aid kit a while back.
- Be a member of the SES. No Progress.
- Have a basic working knowledge of at least one non-English language. No Progress.
- Make a decent profit on the share market (better than 5% annually). No Progress.
- Publish a short story, at least in one of the online magazines, but print would be better. No Progress.
- Post regularly here (at least once a week). One post over two weeks.
