| Happy New Year from Oma and Miss Rotz |
With the promise of a new year and a new decade, the scholars in Room 204 are committed to increasing those drops of knowledge. To that end, I have challenged myself to read 50 books this year. I am nearly finished with my final read of 2019, but have downloaded my first book of 2020,
Eat and Run by Scott Jurek. I am hoping to gain some insights into improving my performance at my next half marathon. I'm curious. How will you challenge yourself this year? What first steps are you taking to meet that challenge? Leave me a comment below.
