It's the last day of 2019, so it's time to reflect on what I have done over the past year and what my new goals will be for 2020.
So here were my 2019 goals -
- Complete a 30k
- Crush Jack's 30k (my race I dnf'd at last year)
- Become an ultramarathoner (over marathon distance)
- Continue to strength train 3x a week and run 4-5 times per week
- Eat healthy 70% of the time
- Run 750 miles
So let's recap.... I completed 2 30k's last year, the Skunk Ape 30k and the 30K Lake Apopka Trail Run. Because of this, I signed up for Jack's 50k instead of the 30k.... and Jack's defeated me again. I dropped down to the now Jack's 24k and finished that. As for becoming an ultramarathoner.... SUCCESS!! I completed 28 miles during River to Sea's 12 hr race. I was pretty consistent with my strength training and running, eating healthy... eh, probably close to 70% of the time. And I ran over 950 miles this year. So I say I pretty much crushed my 2019 goals.
So what's on the radar for me in 2020? I've taken a step back from racing to become a stronger, faster runner. I will still run River to Sea 6/12 hr Race, Jack's 50K and the Mt Dora Dora Double.
- Crush Jack's 50K
- Continue to strength train 3x a week, run 4-5 times a week and spin once a week
- Eat healthy 70-80% of the time
- Run 1000 miles
- Continue to make Wolf Branch Run Club a successful run club
- Blog consistently
- Have a stronger relationship with God
How did 2019 treat you? Any new goals for 2020?
