At 13 Going on Crazy the number 13 is a VERY lucky number, which got me to thinking about 13 things that I want to accomplish before I turn 30…This list has expanded WAY beyond 13 crazy goals, some I completed prior to turning 30 while some I still need to accomplish. Without further ado here is my complete list of 30 “to-do” items that I want to accomplish during my thirtieth year.
- Complete my first full marathon, look out Goofy 2013 here I come! Completed January 12, 2013 and January 13, 2013
- Have the courage to sign-up and train for the Walt Disney World 2013 Goofy Race and a Half Challenge. Yes, I understand that I will actually be 30 years old and 11 days on race day, but that still should count, shouldn’t it? Signed-Up June 12, 2012

I am hoping to hear some very interesting suggestions on what else to add to the list, should I have made it 30 before 30 or stick with lucky 13? I would love it if you’d join me in the madness and come up with your own lists, 25 before 25, 35 after 35, 13 before 2013, whatever get’s the blood in your veins flowing! I would love to hear from you. I hope that with this little assignment, we’ll inspire each other to stop putting things off and seize the day.Remember, wherever you are there you go!
30 and 11 days counts! …and you can definitely do the race and a half- you are amazing!!
13 is one of my lucky numbers, too! I wish you luck in accomplishing all your amazing goals for yourself
13 has oddly been very lucky for me. I always look forward to Friday the 13th!
Glad to hear that I am not the only one who finds this a lucky number!
