Forums >General Running>New Year's Resolutions Related to Running?
I hereby resolve to learn how to brew my own beer.
Don't tell me this isn't related to running.
Stay healthy and consistent – no getting off track for a month or two like Aug & Sept 2012.
Run 1,200 miles.
Run a HM in the fall.
To train like I mean it.
Runners run
Resolution sounds like I need to change....
I don't want to change.
I want to "do what I can do", and "enjoy what I do".
I plan on another full Ironman in May.
But, the "do what I can do" has been my resolution since 1999, and although what I can do today is different from what I could do in 1999, there hasn't been any change in my plans.
Life Goals:
#1: Do what I can do
#2: Enjoy life
Are we there, yet?
No resolutons as such but I plan out each year with my race schedule, goal times, and what I need to run to get there. The biggest change for 2013, and this was made a while ago so not strictly speaking a New Year's resolution, is to run my first ultra. That's a big change for me because my normal race distances are 800m - 5K.
2024 Races:
03/09 - Livingston Oval Ultra 6-Hour, 22.88 miles
05/11 - D3 50K 05/25 - What the Duck 12-Hour
06/17 - 6 Days in the Dome 12-Hour.
After a couple of years of running without a purpose , what Nobby would call crap shooting, will try to stick to a plan, at least until April, when I plan to test the plan's effectiveness.
