Still not there
Posted by littleliz under: Chatter; Goals.
This is hard.
Okay, I know it’s not really hard. But, two days in a row now I have woken up to an alarm, gotten OUT of the bed, and decided to climb back into the bed.
I have not been to the Y yet. Ugh.
In an effort to not ditch the blog even though I have so far ditched any fitness efforts, I thought I would share my next goal.
Ultimately I want to improve my time from last year’s Smithfield Sprint. My plan to do that is to up my running training and switch to clip pedals on my bike (and soon, so that I can begin to train with them). I think those two things alone should help my time tremendously.
So, to keep my running goal in focus, I am going to register for the Shamrock 8k Run on March 21, 2009. (I heard about it from Sarah.)
My husband, who has become quite the runner this past year, wants to run in his first marathon that weekend. So, I thought it would be fun to be included as well. An 8k is nothing compared to a marathon, I know that. But it is a good goal for me considering my triathlon is 3 weeks after and will only have a 5k run.
I still have not ever run more than a 5k at one time.
Anyway, so that’t that. I hope to be back tomorrow to post a workout. 
I won’t be reaching any goals anytime soon if I’m not actually working out. I know that.
One Comment so far...

Get yer hiney to the Y girl! You’ll be SO proud of yourself! If I can drag my tired hiney out of bed at 4 a.m. to be abused by a swim coach at MY YMCA, you can do it too! (Abusive swim coach optional. Not available in all states.)
I saw your comment you posted in November on my page. 
Thanks! I are, indeed, a “Success Story” whatever that means. Well, what it meant was I got to go to NYC on Weight Watcher’s dime and play princess for a day!
