I have never made monthly goals before, but for some reason I really wanted to this month.
I have these two Husker zip up hoodies I bought when I was at my smallest, and I put them on the other day. They are SNUG - I can still get them on and zip them up, but it ain't pretty. So I am making it a goal to have them fit better at the end of the month.
Oh, and I want to continue with my 90 ounces of water every day. I usually drink closer to a gallon (128 ounces) but on weekends I tend to struggle to get to the 90. So I am aiming to hit it every day.
Also, I started tracking my food again. This time around I am just using my Fitbit app to do it. I am also using another app, HabitBull, to track my streaks of days with these new habits. Right now I am at 12 days in a row of drinking all my water, and 8 days in a row of tracking my food!
I feel better about myself than I have in awhile. Now I am just dying to get this half marathon over with on April 19th. I am done with halves after this. I hate the training so much, and I hate being so reliant on running long distances (anything over 5 is long to me) on a treadmill. So I am going to stick to my shorter, more happier distances for the rest of my life. (HOLD ME TO THIS when you hear me talking about another half next year.)
You nailed the reason I am hesitant to do another half -- the training. The race itself is awesome, but the training -- not so much.
