Okay friends & family whether you are a participant in GO FAR or not I would like your help on this project because this is something that applies to us all and that is; creating a healthy & happy 2014! I am working on a resolution wall to be able to display to our participants in the upcoming season. One of the main elements of GO FAR is the concept of GOALS! Goals are what drive us and give us reason. Goals set our course for the quest of discovering more about who we are, what we can accomplish, and what we "stride <run>" for. Please take the time to reflect on what your goals are for 2014 and share a resolution with us (GO FAR) that will help continue your path to a healthier and happier you! It can be a simple statement or an enlightening story. These resolutions will help give inspiration and motivation to our participants by displaying that everyone has something worth achieving and that everyone is worth that achievement! I would really like to hear as many resolutions as possible, so please post and share. I will be printing highlights of this resolution project on a bulletin board and I will be creating a digital slideshow with everyone's posts  Thank you for your support to OBX GO FAR and thank you for helping create a healthier and happier 2014!!
