Well my friends, it is a brand new year! We are now a ways in to January and it is time to fess up on my December recap and my goals for the month.
Back in December my goals were:
- Core three times per week. Some weeks I’m getting all my core work in, and some weeks I’m not. I really need to get consistent on my core work!
- Continue to work out over Christmas vacation. I totally nailed this one! I ran in Central Park, I got in two classes at Refine Method and one spin class at Flywheel. Mission accomplished!
Now that 2014 is here it is officially my Ironman year! My main focus for the next few months is to do my best job to prepare for Boulder in August. With that in mind my goals for January are to:
- Clean up my diet. I have more details to reveal on this one in another post! We’ve gotten in to the routine of planning our meals and taking lunches to work. The trick is to now really focus on the healthfulness of what we are eating.
- Keep up with core, strength and cross country races. I know these will really help to improve my swimming, biking and running.
Pretty simple goals, but they definitely require focus this month! What are your goals for January?
Good goals. Simple and straightforward!
Consistency is so hard, isn’t it. Much easier without the day job thing. But then if it was easy, everybody would do it and it wouldn’t be any fun anymore.
I am trying to add in core and strength work to improve my running too. Boulder should be awesome for you.
