We’ve got FIVE incredible co-hosts My First 5K and More, Running With Attitude, Run Laugh Eat Pie, Runs with Pugs, and me for another Fit Five Friday link-up! This week’s topic is “5 goals for the last 1/4 of the year.” Feel free to write about this or any fitness topic you’d like.
How is it that we have less than 3 months left of this year? This year didn’t go how I hoped it would (running-wise) but I cannot complain too much about it. That is life.
Here are 5 goals for the remaining 3 months of the year:
✅ Be consistent with running. I sound like a broken record. After a few weeks off, I started running again, early in the morning when it is dark, and I like it. After spectating the marathon on Sunday, I was inspired to run another marathon. I plan to enter the lottery next year for the Chicago Marathon.
✅ Stop working so much. I have put in so many hours at work since August and noticed it was beginning to affect me. I wasn’t taking care of myself. I know I will never be caught up and that is OK. Things are a bit smoother at work than they were a few weeks ago – my days are not so chaotic anymore.
✅ Continue to read. I have one book that I am trying to finish reading and hopefully can do it this month. I have a few more waiting for me at the library. Thanks, Wendy for all of your reviews!
✅ Listen to Des and Kara’s podcast. I am probably late to the party here but I recently began listening to it. I am enjoying it a lot! I know they were in town recording an episode and I am bummed I missed it.
✅ Run a 5k. I’ve run a variety of distances this year and only need that one. Will it count if I do an “official” one on my own?
