Goal #3 Join a challenge, marathon, or a class

Please remember that I am following the 2010 version of the "30 goals challenge" then I will pick up the new goals.

I could easily call this goal already done.  I am currently in the last semester of my 2nd Master's degree working on my Educational Leadership certification.  There is my class.  This whole process of the 30 goals is a challenge in itself.  There is my challenge.  I am in no shape to run a marathon so instead of that I think I'll look for a 5k, fun run or walk to join.  With this I will feel like I have accomplished goal #3 without cheating.  "-)

Now, you might ask "How will all of these things change my teaching?"  Well by getting my administrator certification I am learning how to be a better leader.  The same goes for this blog.  I am learning about educational technology and how to apply it to the instructional setting.  As far as the 5k, I am learning that physical exercise strengthens the mind as is de-stresses our lives.  As a less stressed out teacher and a stronger person, I will be able to deal with challenges my job and family place on my life daily.
