It’s a new year! Let’s celebrate your big wins from the previous year!
Happy New Year and welcome to the first Casual Friday open thread of 2025! This is where we take a break from Seattle Seahawks talk and veer off-topic with the rest of the Field Gulls community.
We’re a few days into 2025 but let’s take a look back at last year, but in an upbeat manner! What were your biggest personal wins of 2024? We’ve asked this question periodically and they’ve ranged from marriage, kids graduating from school, successfully mowing the lawn without suffering injury, buying a house, publishing a book, losing weight, and a whole lot more!
My favorite moments of 2024 were covering Seahawks training camp at Lumen Field—it’s less about covering the practice and more about returning to Seattle for the first time in 12 years—as well as getting media credentials to cover the Prefontaine Classic in Eugene, Oregon. The night before the meet I got to take a photo with the great Michael Johnson, one of the greatest American Olympians in history. I’m also incidentally in a couple of documentaries that were filming at the time. I hope to do both again this year, and possibly take my first trip to VMAC in addition to a Lumen Field trip.
Your turn! What were your Ws for 2024?
