Impossible List

Inspired by Joel Runyon’s quest to do the impossible, I created my own list of things to do before I die.

These are things that I consider to be challenging, and I will accomplish them as I progress through. This list will change and evolve, and I am open to any new suggestions from others. I love to try new things and venture out of my comfort zone.

I will keep the list updated as I tackle some of these goals and I hope that I will in turn inspire you to create your own impossible list.
