I'm still working on my 2011 recaps since we still have a day left, but based on the preliminary numbers I figured out my goals and began putting together my racing schedule for next year. Leave a comment if you have a suggestion for a race or goal I should add.
2012 Goals
Running
- Run 1000+ miles (80/mo; 20/wk)
- Run a 5K in 29 minutes
- Run a half marathon in 2:15 or PR (sub-2:24)
- Run a marathon in 5 hours or PR (sub-5:22)
- Become a Marathon Maniac (3 in 90 days)
- 30 day running streak (1 mile/day)
General Fitness
- Walk 500+ miles (42/mo; 10/wk)
- 30 day plank-a-day challenge
- 10 hours of yoga per month (2.5/wk)
- Bike at least once a week
Other
- Drive car < 6500 miles (541/mo; 125/wk)
- Spend < $1000 at restaurants
- Eat restaurant food no more than 100x (8x per month)
- Do 1 new thing each month
- Read 6 books
I've already registered for the ones in bold; the others are just what I am considering but I will likely not run them all. I have a big gap between May and August, but it's usually too hot in Florida to race during those months so it's a good time for rebuilding base milage for marathon season. I may throw in a duathlon during that time, or maybe a 30-day running streak, but I haven't decided yet.
