The first month of the new year isn’t over yet and I’ve already revised my goals. New goal is to run 100 miles a month.
I’m off to a good start passing my 100th mile this month today on a nice 7 mile run and I still have 5 days to go.
I’ve been running pretty consistently for the last 6 months now, slowing ramping up the mileage.
I went from 36 miles total in September to about 100+ this month.
If I can keep up the 100+ miles a month for the rest of the year, it’ll make me happy.
I’ve never made new year resolutions before. I never saw the point, if you want to change yourself, why wait until the new year. I understand why people do it though, it gives them a point of reference that’s easier than picking some arbitrary date though I also believe that’s why most new year resolutions fail. If you really wanted to change, you probably would have done it already or started on that path. Waiting until the new year is just procrastinating.
Having said that, I do have some goals for the new year, all running related.
I’d like to run 600-1000 miles this year and I’d like to run a marathon.
