Monthly Goals – July 2015

Wowsa! Can't believe the year is halfway over.  There are several 2015 goals I still hope to accomplish (mid-year review coming soon as well).  Today I am going to recap my June goals and share my July goals.  1. Run/Walk/Elliptical 90 miles I squeaked it in and ran/walked 90.6 miles.  Note: Not all my Fitbit steps count towards my mileage goal. 2. Hit 10,000 steps/day I ended the month with 433,312 steps (about 7,000 more than May) and hit 10,000 steps/day for 28…

Monthly Goals – June 2015

Last month turned out better than expected! Today I am going to recap my May goals and share my June goals.  1. Run/Walk/Elliptical 80 miles I finally did it...I ran/walked 86.7 miles (no elliptical).  Having the Fitbit definitely helped in this area.  I know my mileage was higher in the beginning of the month vs. the end of the month....next month should be more consistent.  2. Hit 10,000 steps/day I ended the month with 424,726 steps and hit 10,000 steps/day for 27 of…

Monthly Goals – May 2015

The year is going by so quickly! In terms of goals, April was a so-so month.  If I had to give it a grade, it would likely be a B minus. Today I am going to recap my April goals and share my May goals. 1. Run/Walk/Elliptical 80 miles In March I had a goal of 75 miles and ended the month with 79.57 miles.  Based on that number I increased my April goal to 80 miles.  I ended the month…

Monthly Goals – April 2015

March was a great month! While I did not meet all my goals, I am feeling much better and fitter compared to February. Today I am going to recap my March goals and share my April goals.  1. Run/Walk/Elliptical 75 miles I ended the month with 79.57 miles (I know...I know....I should have run .43 more miles for the pretty 80).  It was the first time I met my mileage goal since I started sharing my monthly goals in December.  2. Strength Train…

Monthly Goals – March 2015

February did not turn out as expected.  I was extremely happy to kick off the month injury free - the foot pain I experienced in December and January was finally gone! I was really excited to increase my mileage again, and thought my goals were challenging yet attainable.  Transitioning to a new/old project took more time than expected, and unfortunately the work/life balance took a hit (especially in the fitness department). Today I am going to recap my February goals…

Monthly Goals – February 2015

According to Phil….looks like another 6 weeks of winter.  Anyone watching Groundhog Day this week? Today I am going to recap my January goals and share my February goals (if you do a quick scan….not much a difference there…actually no difference).  1. Run/Walk/Elliptical 75 miles I ran/walked/elliptical for 53.95 miles, which was similar to my December total.  This past month I recovered from my foot issue and the flu, so I am not bummed about that total. 2. Strength Train…

Monthly Goals – January 2015

Happy Happy New Year!  I hope everyone had good time ushering in 2015 - whether it be with family, friends, at home, or out and about. This morning I will be running DC Road Runner’s Predictions & Resolutions 5K in Arlington, Virginia.  I look forward to seeing Courtney and Mar out on the course! Yesterday I shared my 2015 Goals and because it is the first day of the new year I am going to recap my December goals and…

Monthly Goals – December 2014

This is the time of the year in which I begin reflecting on my goals and start thinking of ones for next year.  While my 2015 goals are still in draft form (I’ll post a final version as we approach the new year) there is one action I would like to start this month: set monthly goals.  This makes sense as part of my goal setting strategy.  I have long term  goals and I want to break them up into…
