Weekly Goal Recap & Next Week's Goals

Despite the fact that I haven't completed today's run, I think it is safe to recap last week's goals. Here is the line up:

Goals For The Week (11/24/08)

1. Follow training plan. DONE (almost). I did everything except for today's 6 miler, which I plan to do. I also skipped the strength/stability on Friday but may make it up today.

2. Do Turkey Trot on Thursday. DONE!

3. Stretch more. Done! I did this more but not as much more as I probably should.

4. Do Trigger Point more. Done! I did this more but not as much more as I probably should.

5. Eat healthy and drink lots of water. SORT OF - I think I did better but not as well as I should.

6. Take vitamins. FAIL! I did not take one vitamin this week. Seriously.

7. Figure out this stress/sleeping thing. DONE - sleep has gotten better but the stress has also gotten better.
8. Don't get too mind f'ed with work. DONE!
9. Moderation over holiday weekend. SORT OF - I didn't overeat but did manage to drink myself into thanksgiving oblivion. Hot!
10. Have fun with family and friends. DONE!

I have decided to make next week goals more measurable so its not so wishy-washy, here they are:

Goals For The Week (12/1/08):

1. Follow training plan.
2. Stretch 15 minutes each day.
3. Do Trigger Point 15 minutes each day.
4. Drink 60 oz of water each day.

5. Log my eating each day (and focus on healthy foods!).

6. Take vitamins every day after a meal (one multi and one calcium).
7. Sleep well despite stress

8. Don't get too mind f'ed with work.

9. Moderation over Chicago visit.

10. Go to yoga once.

I am going to Chicago next Saturday on my way to DC for work. I'll be gone from home for five days so I really need to think about when and where to get in my runs. Most of these goals should be easy to attain, but I've found that moderation and Chitown just don't mix well. I might try to get in my longer run on Saturday before I leave instead of Sunday (when I'll inevitably be quite hungover). I love Chicago so so much though and would love to run along the waterfront to bring back some old memories. I can't believe it has been so long since I've lived there!
