Well, this is an interesting post. Last year I wrote my goals for 2020 and well we know how this year went. I added a few of them again in today’s post and crossing my fingers I accomplish my goals.
✅ Stay injury free. The last injury I had was plantar fasciitis. It was painful and one of the worst injuries I’ve ever had.
✅ Buy a house. Yep, still on my list.
✅ Travel to Mexico. I bought tickets for me and my mother to go during Spring Break. Hopefully we can make it next year.
✅ Be more patience at work and at home. With everything that happened this year, I think I did OK here. It wasn’t easy but many things weren’t easy this year.
✅ Just in case there are more live races, my goal is to PR in the following distances: 5k, 4 miles, 8k, 10k, 10 miles, and 13.1. OK, so maybe not all but at least 1 of them?
I hope you can get to Mexiko in 2021. Can you still use the old tickets? Or will you have to buy new ones?
And staying injury-free is a great goal – sometimes it gets lost in all the ambitious targets we set for ourselves.
All the best with your PR-goal – for whatever distance it may turn out to be!
I was able to get a refund on the other tickets. It was a lot of money so I am happy that I got my money back.
I hope you achieve ALL your goals.
I have nothing elaborate for this year. Last year I planned to run one half each month. You know how that went.
I’m not sure when races will be regularly scheduled so injury-free is a good one. I also hope to run 1000 miles for the year.
Thanks, Darlene! I forgot to add about the mileage for the year.
Nothing wrong with shooting for the moon! As long as you’re ok with ehatever you get, since there are so many factors in obtaining a PR. But I think you had a really strong year, Zenaida, despite all the obstacles you had to go through.
Here’s to a great 2021!
Thanks, Judy. I think 2021 will be a good year. 🙂
You’ve got a great list of goals for 2021! Here’s to making them happen!
Thank you!
I really hope that you get to take that vacation to Mexico with your mom this year. I think that everyone deserves a very nice vacation after dealing with all the stress of this year!
I agree!
I have not even begun to think of 2021 goals. I’m still in the recovery/rebuilding process, and have 10 more days of run streaking to finish LOL I was in a good place (distance and speed) when the stress fracture entered my life, so I’d like to get back to that level. One of our running/blogger friends has been hinting at doing a Century ride, so that’s definitely something in the back of my mind 😉
Go for that Century ride!
PR in all the things haha 🙂 Hopefully there will be a lot more opportunities to do so in 2021 at real races. Good luck!
I hope so too. Thanks.
Nothing wrong with aiming high with those PR’s. Looks like you have made a lot of progress with your running this year
Thanks! Now I need to add a little variety to my training.
It’s a good list. My prediction is that the PR’s and buying a house will happen for you in 2021.
Aww, thanks for the support. Really means a lot.
