    43/60

    I am fairly certain I'm not going to make goal this month. :/

    I'm working longer hours and am exhausted after work. Added to that I'm struggling with getting motivated. Fortunately I have Friday off so I will get some rest. I hope everyone has a great week.

    Sometimes I have to laugh at myself. I am so strongly goal oriented. I track my exercise miles on Garmin, and they provide a number of challenges that users can join. This month I joined a challenge to run 50 miles in the month of February. Normally this would be a small stretch goal for me, but nothing crazy. Except that I spent two weeks up north where I only ran once because of the ice and snow. When I got back I found myself staring at about 40 miles to go in 10 days. I don't normally run every day, and my normal short run is only 3 miles, so this wasn't a slam dunk. But I couldn't bear to fail, so I did several consecutive 6 milers. Right now I have 9 miles left with 3 days to go, so "all" I have to do is 3 more short runs, which I'm pretty sure I'll complete. I'm shaking my head at myself. Who cares if I don't complete some silly challenge on Garmin, and yet I couldn't let it go. Just goes to show again, it's all in our heads. Who else is stupidly driven to hit their goals - LOL?

    By the way, I'm at 78/50 on my MYAC goal - which includes walking as well as running.

    @Janet: That is so me! I have to finish what I start. I am conditioning one out of shape body to run again and I am feeling muscles I forgot all about. Every day I try to go further and faster. I just cannot let it go. My husband tracks me on my road ID and he laughs at me when I get back. I was only doing 2 or 3 miles and I am up to 4.25. It is crazy insane what goes on in ones head. Or maybe it’s just runners.

    Adding 5 walking miles. Had to give my sore muscles a rest.

    Yeah Janet I am like that with most things. I will do that with challenges & if I start a project at home I will try to finish it that day or stay up most of the night to try! Yes CRAZY! My husband says I obsessive!!! When I say I will do it, I will do it!! Today I got in 6 from ex bike & 2 on foot!! Puts me past my goal. 105 of 100.

    @janet.- cyclist do it also. I have learned over the years after cycling went from fun to an obligation that sometimes you have to let it go. However, that doesn’t stop me from thinking, “ if I just ride an extra 9 miles each day I could hit ....” 😂. I had to laugh when I read your post and all the others about making goal because I can see myself doing the same things. 😉😁

    Hubby actually brought my bike in the house temporarily instead of putting it in the garage for some reason. It's a Specialized Allez and it's so light!! I ordered a new helmet (orange) so I will be very visible. My old helmet is ancient and probably not safe anymore. I'm keeping my old 25-year-old hybrid Giant brand bike for the gravel trails and for hooking up the tag-along attachment when my niece grows into it.

    I can't wait to ride it! Just waiting for it to get a little warmer

    @lamlamsmakeover: I love your new bike. So exciting!

    Well I am sneaking in under the radar this month after a pinched nerve in my shoulder and compressed lumbar disc. I am finally feeling decent again. I managed to get a 4 and 3.5 Mile walk/run in this week. And I dropped another pound. Woo! Woo!

    And that's GOAL for @clepant @k80flec and @cpanus! Way to go!

    I'm glad I'm not the only nut in this group. At least I think I am - would it be better if I went and found some saner friends - LOL? And by the way, I'm on track to complete my Garmin challenge tomorrow with a final 3 mile run. But there's a whole new list of March challenges I can choose - hee hee.
