Keller's Daily Post

“It's Christmas Eve! It's... it's the one night of the year when we all act a little nicer, we... we... we smile a little easier, we... w-w-we... we... we cheer a little more. For a couple of hours out of the whole year, we are the people that we always hoped we would be!” - Frank Cross

The aftermath

This is another one of those books I should have read five years ago. This is my second day reading this book and I'm already on page 83.

Repost @lightoflife Day 13/100 #THE100DAYPROJECT Completed my fifth half marathon @pghmarathon, second as a charity runner. This year I ran with the @lightoflife team. Part of the 127 member team is pictured above. #The100DaysofDoingNOTPlanning

This about sums up my day at the @pghmarathon for the @lightoflife team. I completed the race in an 1:48:52 which is slightly off my fastest half (1:47:34) that I completed during the 2013 Pittsburgh Marathon. More importantly, @lightoflife raised over $130,000 to help the homeless of Pittsburgh. After my company match is paid, my fundraiser will have raised almost $500. Thank you to everyone who donated or shared one of my messages. If you would still like to donate please do so on my @Crowdrise page: https://www.crowdrise.com/LightOfLifePittsburgh2016/fundraiser/coreykeller. The final day to donate is May 2, 2016.

Day 11/100 #THE100DAYPROJECT #runforareason Picked up my @pghmarathon bag for the half marathon on Sunday. After @PNC deposits their charity match contribution I'll have raised almost $500 for @lightoflife. To everyone who donated thank. If you're considering a donation please do so now. The final day to donate is May 2nd. #The100DaysofDoingNOTPlanning

I meant to post this yesterday. Day 10/100 #THE100DAYPROJECT My final day of practice for my fifth speech in the Toastmasters Humorously Speaking manual. I'll present this speech at my Friday morning Toastmasters club. The speech title is fireworks, boat races, and almost getting arrested on the Fourth of July. It's childhood story about spending a nice, relaxing Fourth of July on my grandparent's boat. #The100DaysofDoingNOTPlanning

Day 9 of 100 #THE100DAYPROJECT On Tuesday, I went to vote at our local elementary school. Before walking into our assigned room to vote we passed the above quote. Yesterday, I spent sometime thinking about this quote and how I can continue to improve upon it's meaning in my own life.

Day 8 of 100 In high school I guess I thought I was way to cool read a book. I'd even brag about how little I'd read. That didn't change until I met @lisamariekeller who made me realize that I was being an idiot. Since then I've been reading regularly, usually on the T on my way to and from work. I average around twenty books a year. This year I decided to try reading, or listening, to a book every week. I'm currently on my seventieth book, The Path of Least Resistance: Learning to Become the Creative Force in Your Own Life, by Robert Fritz (pictured above.) #The100DaysofDoingNOTPlanning #THE100DAYPROJECT

Day 7 of 100 I completed my final long run for the Pittsburgh Half Marathon that I'll be running for @lightoflife. May 2nd is the last day to donate. Donatations can be made on @crowdrise: https://www.crowdrise.com/LightOfLifePittsburgh2016/fundraiser/coreykeller (link is also in my profile.) #The100DaysofDoingNOTPlanning #THE100DAYPROJECT

I spent the day competing at the Toastmasters District Contest. I didn't win but it was a good opportunity to conquer one of my old fears and speak in front of almost 100 people. At night, Lisa and I celebrated our seventh anniversary at @eat_gaucho which might be our new favorite restaurant in Pittsburgh. #The100DaysofDoingNOTPlanning #THE100DAYPROJECT Day 5/100

I've been using 750words.com for several years, but I've struggled to complete it consistently. My longest streak was 86 days. During the #the100DayProject, I'm planning to break that streak during my #The100DaysofDoingNOTPlanning Day 3/100

One of my goals for this year is to learn full stack programming. I've done a lot of programming over the years but I feel like I still haven't got it. #freecodecamp offers free tutorials to learn Full Stack JavaScript. I've used almost every free resource available and this best program I've found with an active community. Today, I began working on the Personal Portfolio Webpage. I'll continue working on this project for the next few days. #The100DaysofDoingNOTPlanning #the100DayProject

For the next 100 days during the #100DayProject I’m going to quite planning and start the things I want to achieve during my #100DaysofDoingNOTPlanning. Each day I’m going to post something I did to contribute to my goal of accomplishing something every day. Day 1 of 100 Complete

My theme for this weekend.

This is how you feel when your kids finally go to sleep at night.
