What Is This? (First Year - Age 27)

Here's the low-down:

When I turned 27 (June 25th 2014) I decided to do a big project.

This is that project.

The first year, I promised myself and the universe that I would do the following things before I turned 28 (June 25th 2015):

• Post on this blog once everyday
• Draw a picture everyday
• Write a haiku everyday
• Create a creative project from Noah Scalin's 365 project book everyday, loosely following the guidelines he puts forward

I would also accomplish a series of tasks:

• Run 1,000 miles (revised to 750 miles due to the worst winter on record in Boston and a knee injury. The remaining miles we outsourced by friends and family who donated to the cause!)
• Do 10,000 push-ups and sit-ups
• Read 10,000 pages
• Complete 25 books
• Write 100,000 words

And because I'm insane, I also agreed to a series of fasts where I don't partake in a thing for 100 days (not in a row, thank goodness.) These are the things:

• Meat
• Junk Food
• Alcohol
• Internet (Junk Sites)
• Video Gaming
• TV

I updated on the fasts and tasks every Wednesday.

Here's how I did:
