On Your Marks, Get Set, Go!

Better late than never. Thank you to everyone who contributed to this post, it's so lovely hearing about the plans people have for the future. Looking ahead is definitely the thing to be doing. So let's hop to it! What's happnin in 2013?

• Kicking off with a respectable list of goals is Orsii. I started following Orsii when she was training for her first half marathon and following her journey was nothing short of inspiring. So I'm pretty sure these goals are in sight already. You can follow her on twitter @Orsii.

HEALTH:
- Finish my “bad stomach” treatment
- Run a sub 2 hour half marathon
- Become stronger and leaner by doing more cross training
- Share the fitness progress diary I have been keeping for a year on my birthday

LIFE:
- Travel more
- Get my finances in order so I can buy a flat
- Invest more time in myself
- See the people I love more often

WORK:
- Finish my MA degree
- Redo my blog and expand some areas of it
- DJ out more
- Do more radio related

• Keeping it short and sweet is Emily from I've Fallen Out With My Jeans who says that in 2013 she will be less scared and use her brain! I like it. Fingers crossed you'll be hearing more from me and Emily this year with some Steel Style...Follow her on twitter @poufle.

• Elles Bells Runs will be your go to blog to follow the running journey of @Broke_Grove. Simply put, her 2013 goals are to keep a healthy eating and keeping fit log. A blog needs readers. Go. Plus, she's travelling at the moment, so if you fancy running in the arctic, uhm, get some advice here!

• Next up is Lucy from Fi & Me whose vintage and hand made business takes priority this year, and another runner! Amazing! Follow her twitter @fiandme:

•   "In 2012, I started up a little handmade business with my sister, got a professional marketing qualification, learnt to crochet and ran a 5k. I also started training for a 10k but then hurt my back :(So, in 2013 I'm going to take part in a 10k (I'm joining a running club to give me a kick up the arse!), build on the business and start selling at some local craft and vintage fairs. And learn to drive - but I say that every year!" 

There are so many wonderful things on the horizon for so many of us. There are countless bloggers who have documented 2012 and their resolutions for 2013 so get looking through your faves for some inspiration. Hopefully you'll follow the ladies above and follow their progress on these goals set for the year ahead.

2012 You've Been Grand, but here's to 2013.

Afternoon all on this fabulous Friday the 28th December 2012. We have but a few days left of what I think, has been an amazing year, but how about you? I'd absolutely love to gather as many reviews of 2012 as well as hopes for 2013 on my blog from as many people as possible. Let's all share the good stuff! 

I'll start the ball rolling...

• My new years' resolutions for 2012 were to run a 10K and to begin my own vintage clothing boutique. In February I did my first 10K and figured, well that's too easy, so I entered the Sheffield Half Marathon and completed that in May. My own ASOS Marketplace went live in April and though it hasn't exactly taken off, it's been a learning curve and I hope to expand on it in 2013. 
• In 2013 I would like to dedicate more time to this blog, beat both my 10K and half marathon run times and though I don't want to bang on about it, I wouldn't mind losing a few pounds too! But in general, I hope that at the end of 2013 I feel a lot more secure in my life, with plans and ideas for the future because currently, I'm a little lost. 

You don't have to go on like I did, just a bullet point for each one 2012 and 2013. If you would like to contribute to this post - and I really hope you will spread this idea far afield into the social networking stratospheres and beyond - then you can do so in many ways:

• Tweet me @PUT_Vintage
• E-mail me prettyusedthings@gmail.com
• Leave a comment below on this post 

Make sure you leave your name, bullet points and your twitter name and website/blog so we can find you and what you're all about too. Please try and get these to me by January 1st so I can post the blog!

Looking forward to hearing from you guys.
