Goals for 2009
Its almost half way through January and I haven’t set any goals yet for this year. Here are two that I’m putting down in digital ink today. That means they are as good as done.
- Kick my soda habit. I drink way too much diet soda. Diet Mountain Dew primarily but I’m all over Diet Pepsi too. 5 a day is not a stretch. In the last week I have switched to drinking tea. It seems to be working. I have had 1 Diet Dew each of the past 2 Sundays, that’s it.
- Run 50% more than I did last year. According to my handy Garmin I ran 643 miles in 2008. That means I’ll need to do 965 this year. In 2008 I only did 3 races, if I sneak in a couple more half marathons it will help me reach my goal. Any one up for a challenge?
Those are two that are easy to measure and I love throwing them out in public. Don’t be scared to call me out if you see me slipping.
