    My short term goal is a charity bike ride in aid of the Royal Marsden cancer hospital that has cared for my father-in-law through three bouts of cancer in three years. He is currently in remission and wouldn't be here without the first class treatment that they have provided.
    It's a 92 mile ride and my training is going well, did 72 miles at a decent pace today. Three weeks to go and fingers are already crossed that the weather on the day is kind.

    Long term goal is to have as many healthy, fit and fun years as possible and to spend my children's inheritance. ;)

    Amazing!! So happy to hear he has had such great care. He's definitely a fighter.

    A 92 mile ride is extreme and hard work for sure✋

    My goals don't really have "ends" they are more like (for lack of a better term) journeys:

    1) To be racing fit, not get tired in my races, have the endurance to race the classes I want, and to be strong enough to manage the bike as my pace increases without bad side effects (such as arm pump). This is a moving target since as I get faster, the demands get higher.

    2) To get my black sash in my martial art, and continue on from there, but that's the first goal on that one.

    3) Make activity a part of my life again. From ~2008- early 2016 I was not very active, lost all fitness, and put on the weight. Been making activity and working out a part of my life again (injury made 2017 tough, but have been back at it since).

    4) As a result of 1-3, I'd sure like to get "my" body back - primarily, lose the excess fat. I have come to be less concerned with the number on the scale, but I'd like to be able to see my muscle definition more and not have the large-ish love handles hanging around. Slowly, ever so slowly losing it, but every time I try to cut back too steeply I start getting the hangries, so about 0.2-0.5/week seems to be about the max without my workouts or sanity suffering. Sloooooow road that one, but it's one I can maintain.

    Boss✋ You will get there for sure!

    My new goal is to gain 2 or 3lbs healthily, continue with excersise routines and up calories to 1600 and see what happens.
