My 30 Before 30 List

30 things I want to do before I turn 30. I have read and heard about it. I thought it is an interesting idea. I'm not doing it because 30 is a huge milestone or anything. I just like the idea of having my list of things that I want to do over the next few years. And 30 before 30 is kind of catchy don't you think?

It has taken awhile but I have been compiling a list. These are in no order. Just as I thought of them. Whenever I complete each one I will cross it off and blog about it.

1. Complete a full marathon.
2. Go visit the Grand Canyon.
