February Wrap-Up & March Goals

And just like that, February is over and we are onto to March.  I had 7 lofty goals for my Fitness February but I am sad to say that I didn’t achieve all of them.  L ended up getting the stomach flu and that put us out of gym commission for almost 10 days.

February Goals:

#1 – Run at least 100 miles in February – Achieved! I ran exactly 100 miles

#2 – Attend at least one Bar Method class a week (Already attended class today 2/2) – Fail, I only went to one class

#3 – Try 2 new classes at the gym and pray Mr. L lets me complete the class  - Fail 

#4 – Swim at least once a week and for at least 1500 yards – Success! I really missed swimming.

#5 – Take at least one spin class in order to see if that love can be rekindled – Fail

#6 – stretch, stretch, stretch - Stretched daily YAY!

#7 – do an at home yoga DVD at least once a week while Mr. L naps – Fail, I didn’t even buy the DVD

March Goals:

#1 – Run at least 100 miles – I think this will be my monthly goal

#2 – Finish the E. Todd Murray Half  (3/3) and the NYC Half  (3/17) – I am going to see how I do at this weekend’s half before I make a time goal for NYC.

#3 – Take one spin class

#4 – Run at least one stroller run a week – L and I both missed it and the weather is finally getting better

#5 – Keep swimming once a week but increase the distance to 1750-2000 yards

#6 – Run at 5k with the stroller

#7 – A long run of 16 miles

The NJ Marathon is quickly approaching and right now, my heart just isn’t in it.  I feel like I’m going through the training motions instead of being super enthusiastic.   L is going through a sleep regression phase and we are up 3-4 times a night.  I know the lack of sleep is definitely causing me some problems.

How did your training for February go?  The spring race season is just around the corner, what’s on your race calendar?
