How's 2016 going so far??

Greetings everyone!

Wow, I didn't realize it's been so long since my last entry!

So here's what's been happening since the last time I wrote:
1) I got engaged on Christmas morning!  It's given me a new motivation to become healthier.
2) I ran a half marathon in December.  It was the TOUGHEST one because I had not really been training for it and that last mile was brutal. I cried tears of pain and joy at the end. A real emotional experience.
3) On Jan. 7, I started the Hammer and Chisel program.  It's tough but it's been a GREAT experience! I'm entering my last week of the program this week and looking ahead to what's next
4) I signed up for the Austin 10K in April.  Using my Nike running app on my phone, I'm following an 8 week training plan and ramping up my runs since I haven't really been running since the half in December. Time to get back into it!

As far as health plans the rest of the year, well I've started "Operation Wedding Dress."  We're targeting a wedding date sometime this summer. So I have a few months time to get in better shape but don't want to wait till the last minute! Now is the time to start.

What are your goals for the year and are you still working towards them now in the middle of February?

You know the statistic - more than 70% of people drop out of their New Year resolutions by March 1st.  Let's go against the norm and don't become a part of that statistic!

I have my motivation for this year.  What's yours?  What is your why?  Make sure it's one that is strong enough to get you through those days when you don't want to push play or workout at all.

Keep it up!
