June 2014 Goals

Let’s see how May went, shall we? (For having so many days, it sure went by quickly. I don’t even understand how it’s over already.)

May 2014 Goals

  1. Get to Rivendell! – SUCCESS! I spent the night with elves on May 9.
  2. Strength Training five times (1 down!) – 80% SUCCESS! I went four times – go me! That is four more times than in April!
  3. Have a good (read go to it and finish) race on 5/10 – FAIL! I did not go to the race. I did do a solo 10K that day, though, and finished with my 2nd fastest post-baby time ever.
  4. 25K new words – booo! only 47% success. It was my lamest writing month in ages.
  5. Plant some stuff in the garden – fail. completely. I really should do that, though.
  6. Keep on keeping on with #100happydays – SUCCESS! I had happy pics every day.
  7. Run more than 50 miles – FAIL! And embarassingly so. Today is the first day of my official 18 week marathon training, so I should probably try to step it up.
  8. Take Alvie Bean to the Zoo – SUCCESS! Kind of. I took him Sunday, which was officially June, but still! It has to count, right?
  9. Figure out a schedule that allows me to accomplish near-daily workouts, writing, and daily going to work for 9 hours. I am a morning person, and I get up and write most mornings at about 5 am, but then when I’ve planned my post-work workouts, I don’t do them because I’m lazy and tired. Right now, I am supposed to be running, but I am not. – YEAH, NO. I barely slept in May, which meant I didn’t get up to write, and then I didn’t much work out. I really need to do better.
  10. Get the architect a kick-ass and as-yet undetermined birthday gift. – SUCCESS! Kind of. I am returning half of  his gift, but I think he was happy. Ish.

  1. Make it to Hollin Ridge (my next milestone on my walk to Mordor).

  3. 35,000 new words.
  4. Plant the garden by June 9.

  7. Take the Bean swimming
  8. Hire a new employee so that I have no more vacancies in my department
  9. Weekly word posts
  10. Walk 100 miles (I was so close in May, that I think this is a reasonable goal).
