January summary:
For my 'daily minimums', I only had 8 days completing all 10. My big downfall is eating fish every other day. I had 27 days where I did 9/10 tasks, and all but 2 of those it was the fish that I didn't get.
For 'do something every day', I batted 100% (although the day I moved furniture could arguably have been skipping, since it really wasn't *that* hard, but hey, it still got me moving). These go above and beyond the daily minumums- ie, the 5 goblet squats in the morning don't count for these, and neither does the short AM yoga flow.
I did 10 days of yoga
I did 7 weight lifting workouts
Nature: Snowshoeing 1x, hike x1, beach walk x1
Local walks: I did 15 walks, all but 2 were more than 1 mile
On to February! Goals:
-Do better with fish (minimum 10 days with all 10 daily minimums)
-Do 20 local walks
-Do another 10 days yoga minimum
-Do 10 weight lifting workouts
February summary:
-Yoga was put on hold because of my knee issues. Luckily, these seem to be resolving! Been focusing on changing running form and working on various PTs- clamshells, arch strengtheners, etc.
-Ran 26.6 miles total. (11 runs)
-Did 11 walks, but with the runs, this adds to more than my goal of 20 local walks- I consider this met!
-Biked 9.8 miles (5 bike rides)
-1 day total 'fail'- I did nothing. Zero. Zilch. First one of the year. Hopefully the only!
-9 days of doing 10/10 daily minimums. 16 days of 9/10. A trip to seattle threw off 3 days of minimums. Mainly the others were due to not doing fish (every other day goal for meeting the minimums).
March goals:
-Go to the yoga classes I bought on groupon, lol. I'm hoping to do 4 real classes in march.
-Continue the couch to 5k program.
-End of month, do either or both: 5k color run with neighbors, local park 5k.
-Goal of 1 bike ride per week
-Runs+Walks >20.
Okay, so March... went well, in many respects, and yet my goals don't reflect that well.
-Go to the yoga classes I bought on groupon, lol. I'm hoping to do 4 real classes in march.
Only made it to one, but I DID activate the groupon and go once, which is the big hurdle for me. (New things = scary, haha)
-Continue the couch to 5k program.
Rocked this one. One run was pushed back because I picked up an extra work shift, but that was all.
-End of month, do either or both: 5k color run with neighbors, local park 5k.
Neither of these happened. Color run never came together with neighbors, and the local park 5k was the day I picked up that work shift. Will plan to do one in April though.
-Goal of 1 bike ride per week
Did not happen. Only 2 bike rides this month. In my defense, it rained a LOT.
-Runs+Walks >20.
So close... 19 days! Although a couple days I doubled up on walks, so maybe that counts? I forget how I counted it for Feb, haha.
Otherwise- 1 total 'fail' day, no work, no activity. This has happened each month, so I've decided I'll just build this in- one allowed fail each month.
-All time high of 16 days of 10/10 of my daily minimums. All 15 other days were 9/10. And like February, it was because of the fish ;) Haha. I'm slowly making my peace, and dare I say, starting to ENJOY some preparations of fish!
So, April goals:
-20 walks + runs
-finish out the couch to 5k program, then move to 2 days per week running
-once C to 5k ends, add 1 scheduled day lifting per week
-3 yoga classes at the studio
-15 days of 10/10 daily minimums
-2 hikes
-Run a 5k at some sort of organized event
