Goal #1- PR Half marathon - done
Goal #2 - Run in NYC - done
Goal #3 - Host a fun run - I had hoped to pull my running friends together for a nice 5K in honor of the Sandy Hook families, but it just didn't happen.
Goal #4 - Run 1000 miles - 257.36 through March! Only 742.64 to go. That's about 82 miles a month, eek!
Goal #5 - Do strength exercises consistently - total fail. Not even a picture to share. April will be my turn around month. Pinky promise!
Tell me about your goal successes/failures.
I really like the tall buildings in your NYC running pic...thanks for sharing and congrats on your accomplished goals.
ReplyDeleteYou're well on your way to 1000 miles! Great job with the PR and accomplishing your other goals! :0) Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteNice job on achieving some of those goals - especially the PR!! Now...about that strength training ;-) Just kidding. Happy Friday.
ReplyDeleteHa, ha--a true runner. I hate strength training, too. I do it 2x/week b/c I'm old and I have to, but I would rather run any day of the week. Congrats on hitting so many goals!
ReplyDeleteYour goals are awesome, congrats on them! I struggle with putting in time for strength training too! You'll do it in April!!!
ReplyDeleteHope so! I already did some planks ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm realizing that I need to/have to also!
ReplyDeleteLOL! You're right though ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely need to with the strength training!
ReplyDeleteGreat job! It does get hard when life gets busy!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your accomplishments! I need to look back at my goals for a review.
ReplyDeleteYou're doing great with your goals! I haven't checked in on mine in a while - probably should.
ReplyDeleteI always set a goal of doing more strength training and it never happens! Someday....
ReplyDeleteI set a goal of 1000 miles for the year, too.... but, I'm thinking that will get changed, seeing as I *might* break 200 tomorrow. C'est la vie. At least I got a new marathon PR already... might even be able to break 5 hours and be not-quite-molasses by fall! And here's a Google fail- the sassy band email from weeks ago showed up in my junk mail YESTERDAY! GAH. The Internet is a weird thing.
ReplyDeleteGreat job on your half marathon and you are definitely on your way to 1000 miles.
ReplyDeleteMy challenge to myself for 2013 is to run 13 half marathons. 13.1, 13 times in 2013. I've done 4 and have 9 more to go.
Thanks Jill!
ReplyDeleteI always need a reminder too!
ReplyDeleteRight! Why is it so hard? :)
ReplyDeleteAwesome job on your PR! Keep running marathons and you'll get closer to 1000 than you think. Ugh to Google!
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome! Good luck with the rest!!
ReplyDeleteI think strength training is the bane of many a runner's existence. I will use any excuse possible to postpone or skip it; but then I'll get a familiar little knee twinge that reminds me how weak hips sink ships, and I get back on track!
ReplyDeleteI too am struggling with the strength training. I find that when I get hurt or a week gets rough that is the first thing that gets cut. However, I am continuing to work on speed and hope to add in more speed and strength training when I get better. Great job on your half PR and also running in NYC, how coll!
ReplyDeleteHey you are not doing so bad! Keep up the good work! I am horrible with strength training. HORRIBLE. I need to start though because I'm getting older & losing muscle tone!
