\nIt’s a new year! I don’t make New Year’s Resolutions anymore. I’m more comfortable with monthly goals. Something short term I can work towards and ACHIEVE. So how did I do in December? December was okay…I ate a lot more than I wanted to but that’s the holidays for ya.<\/p>\n

December Goal Recap<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Maintain current weight. Don\u2019t gain weight. FAIL. <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

2. Try one new recipe<\/a> each week that challenges me. YES. Sugar Cookies, Minestrone Soup, Cheddar Garlic Bread and Penne with Squash and Goat cheese.
\n<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

3. Continue the hip strengthening exercise and strength training.\u00a0 YES!<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

4. Try to live in the moment and be happy with what I have, not worrying about what I DON\u2019T have.\u00a0 SORT OF.<\/span><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

5. Begin training for my first Century Ride! Nope. I did not get on the bike at all in December.<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I didn’t fall too short of my goals for December but I also didn’t really give it much effort either. I fell victim to the typical excuse: The Holidays. I was busy, my schedule was crazy, there were injuries and sickness in my house, traveling and parties. I managed to get in all my workouts and I tried to make healthy food choices. That’s about all I could hope for. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

Now it’s a new year, a new month and time for new goals.<\/p>\n

January Goals<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

1. Do yoga once a week. Either a class at the gym or at home.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

2. Go Snowshoeing at least once.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

3. Try one new restaurant each month. This month: Iorio<\/a>.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

4. Start training on the bike!<\/strong><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I felt pretty confident about my training for the Portland Century…I told myself “I’ve got 8 months to train!” But then I started to think about how many miles a week I need to build up to by August and I began to panic. Do I have enough time to train for 100 miles?? I need to get started on the bike asap!<\/p>\n

Reach the Beach 2010<\/p><\/div>\n

I was feeling a bit burned out with my workout schedule but I think adding one workout a week on the bike will remedy that.<\/p>\n
