What’s up for 2016?

(Part 41 of 72 in series, My Journey)

I’ve recently started thinking about 2016 goals. These aren’t “New Year’s Resolutions”; When I pick up a goal, it’s only after a lot of thinking and planning. Most importantly, I only commit if I believe the result of reaching the goal is worth it.

I’m considering things like the following:

  • Hip/ankle flexibility: Achieve being able to sit, relaxed in a full squat. (I’ve been working on this for 3 months already.)
  • Reach a lower weight; I’m thinking 210 is probably a good goal for about 6 months out. (Currently about 223.)
  • Run 10 minute miles; Maybe run a 5K in 30 minutes in October. (I think this would be pretty easy if I was 210.)

…and then a bunch of non-physical training things:

  • Become fluent in French. (A big challenge!)
  • Develop a solid writing habit.
  • Develop a solid reading habit. (I already read a lot; It’s consistently finding/making the time.)

Allez! Allez!
