Goal reports - running.

So the next few posts will be focusing on the goals that I have made for myself this last year and look back on how far I have come with them. While I am still not quite sure of what I will call them or even if I will do the whole series of posts that I have planned to go with it. But to start off with, seeing as how I am still on a bit of an adreniline high from Saturday, I figured it would begin with my fitness goals. 

Tower or Princess

While my first real goal for myself that I made I was unable to do, the Disney tower of terror 10 miler, it had sold out before I had felt comfortable with my mileage and pace. And while I am glad that I didn't even do the back up run I had planned for October either, the Runners World 1/2 marathon, I did get to register for the Disney Princess 1/2 marathon in February. And I also get to do the run with my mother, which is super exciting. To get there I do need to send in proof of time, from a race with a minimum distance of 10k. 

While this was a difficult task to find a 10k run after October, I was able to do so and even got a PR time for myself in the process. Although I am still debating if I should send it in or not. As running at that pace was brutally painful afterwords, and I am just not sure if I can sustain it for 13.1 miles. But that is what training is for right? I just have to maintain a positive mental focus on it and not lose my motivation. But by my calculations I should be able to finish the 13.1 miles in roughly 3:20:00 or so I hope. That is my goal, but don't hold me to it. 

RWRun Streak

Another goal that I had attempted this year was the #RWRunStreak this past summer. I failed miserably, however it was not a fail in the running portion of it on purpose. I had dropped a blender blade on my foot, ninja blades are super sharp I recommend knowing where they are at all times. So I was unable to run for 3 days as I waited for it to heal completely and not hurt painfully when standing on it. Yep this is why I'm not allowed to make smoothies after my runs anymore. It's before or wait till the bf is home. 

Anyway the point to bringing that up is that the holiday run streak starts tomorrow and I am going to actually finish it if it kills me. I know I can do it so it should be super fun right. Anyway I will be posting my progress on here as well as my instagram and maybe twitter too. I'm just so excited to see if I can work it around my new schedule at work and such. I don't plan on killing myself in all honesty it will just be interesting to see how it will work out during the busiest time of year for my type of work. We shall see. Gotta love retail. Well I think that is all that I really feel the need to go into at the moment.  More to come later. 

Luv ya all.
