I know these are a couple of days late but here are my new years resolutions or goals for the upcoming year.
1. Lose 60 lbs - I have actually already started to work on this goal. Before Christmas this goal was more like lose 70 lbs but I have taken a little bit off so far and will continue. I am hoping to be down in the 210s by the time the MTB races start in late summer.
2. Be active 7 hours a week - This is actually what I used to do when I was in shape. I made sure I got 7 hours of exercise in a week. I am not too picky about the form of this exercise as long as I am being active at least one hour a day.
3. Run at least one of the fall DORBA races - I really miss my mountain bike rides. After Kevin got sick just seemed to stop riding. So this year I am going to get back on my bike and run the races again. It's been probably 5 years since I rode a race.
4. Watch less TV - I am able to meet #2 on this list then this won't be that hard. I have already gone through my DVR and killed several shows that honestly were not that good but I watched them anyway.
5. Ride 100 miles in one day - This is something I always wanted to do. I would really like to do the Hotter than Hell 100 but I am not sure that is within my grasp this year. But I would take just getting on my trainer and knocking out 100 miles in one day.
6. Start running again - I would really like to start running again. Unfortunately this might be out of my control due to some chronic injuries and problems. However, once my weight starts to drop down a little I would really like to start getting back out and pounding the pavement.
7. Get outdoors more - I just spend too much time inside.
8. Fit into that damn Yahoo jersey! - John bought me that jersey when he was on the Yahoo! campus. He bought a XXL but it is a European size and the XXL only refers to the length not the girth of the person. SO I have never fit into it, but this year will be the year!!!
And GO!
Here's to a great new year!!!
