Well, it’s 3 weeks into the new year and time to check the progress of your SMART Goal! This is when you start to address the “T” of the SMART goal ….yes…timebound- Hopefully, your goal is attainable….but, can you stick with the “timebound” piece?
This is the part that makes it really important to Progress Monitor….which means you assess your progress every 3-6 weeks….
Are you running faster? longer? are the runs getting easier?
Are you strategies working?
Ok…..my runs are going pretty well. I’m running about 25 miles a week-which isn’t too bad since I tend to run more on a treadmill this time of year. I’m trying to run outside a few times a week…but, the older I get…the more I dislike the cold!
Core….I needed something new-and found some great programs through Women’s Health online: http://www.womenshealthmag.com/best-body-ever/ I also bought a 6lb medicine ball-that I LOVE to use! Amazing how a $20 fitness ball can motivate a workout……
Racing? I’ve partially committed to a Super Bowl Sunday 5K run….I’d be fully committed if the race were closer-the drive-an hour away- makes the getting up part THAT much earlier AND harder. Clearly, I hate getting up….
Food for Fuel…getting better-but, seriously, how hard does it have to be to detox after the Holidays????? I’ve upped my fiber…decreased my sugar and salt….and, ummmm…. stayed steady with the wine…ok. so-nobody’s perfect….
Hoping to find the “magic” eathing plan-I searched the internet…well-searched-might be a strong word…but, I did come across an article by Joy Bauer that helped me get started:

How are YOU doing?
