New Goals

So, I learned something about myself. Re-confirmed is more accurate, because I've proven it to myself over & over again. I am calendar & result driven.

I started running this spring and planned to do the Komen race in June. In late April/early May, a conflict came up against the race. I decided I'd just do a later race, but that I would keep training.

Almost immediately, I stopped training.

The moral of the story: I *have* to have benchmarks on my calendar, and in the reasonably near future.

To that end I'm putting AIDS Walk Washington (Oct. 4) & the Thanksgiving Day Trot (11/27) on my calendar now. Meaning I have to get back in the gym, now.
