2012 Goals and Tracking

[Cntrygal]

2012 starts in a few days - so here's to a fresh start, re-dedication, or continuing maintenance!




My goals are very similar to to last year.

1. Avoid major sidelining injury.

2. Continue to run.

3. Strength train (for toning) 3-4 times a week.

4. Eat healthier.


Good Luck everyone!!!

3. like no major injuries
4. get back to swimming

in buffalo we're about 34 inches below normal, so it seems to be a problem everywhere, and locally it hasnt been cold enough for the ski resorts to even make snow

Why was Feb so low for you?

Short month, had to work 10 sixteen hour days, and probably was slacking off.

So far so good for me! I still could improve my nutrition, but it is better than it was lol.

I did the ragnar in florida a fews years ago. IT WAS AWESOME. Such a great experience! Hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

On another note. I've added a goal to my plan just last night. I'm trying to raise $911 by running 125 miles between now and September 11th. All donations are split evenly between two great charities; Active Heroes and The National Fallen Firefighters Foundation.

If you are interested in donating, or raising money yourself, please check out my fundraising page; stayclassy.org/guszaso

thanks in advance and keep up the good work everyone :)

I had a blast! I posted a picture of my medals (yep plural) that I got on Saturday. I'm also considering doing one more this year (to bring the total to three lol)... I'm thinking about Vegas in November. I also have another HM coming up.

Good luck on your running and fund raising!

Overall I was successful. I managed to avoid sidelining injury until 3 weeks ago. My nutrition still needs work, but I am doing much better.

I finished the year with 2 Ragnar Relays (Chicago & Great River), 4 HM's and a "virtual 100K". The 100K was tracked online and didn't have to be completed in a single run, since it was a benefit for kids with Autism we had a couple months to complete our chosen distance (there were several different distances to choose from).
