What are your February Goals?

Running related - just make it through the month without injury and stay mostly in maintenance mode with only a slight buildup in mileage. Get my long run back up to 12-13 miles.
Fitness related - barbell squat equal to my body weight. After going to a gym for 6 months I finally started doing real barbell squats two weeks ago. Today I did 125 lbs on my 3rd set of 10 reps. I think I can crank out a few at 155 by the end of the month.0 -
- 5k at Stone Mountain on the 8th
- After the 8th, I will start training for a 10k in June using gip.is app
- 3 runs a week with a 4 mile long run for Jantastic
- work toward doing a full push-up off the floor
I weigh in for the FitTrip challenge on February 14th. I'll start tracking calories and activity after then. My goal is to gain 5 pounds of muscle and lose 2 pounds of fat in 16 (?) weeks, by bulking for 12 weeks while doing StrongLifts and then cutting for the last 4 weeks.0 -
Complete a 10K
Start doing longer runs once per week (7-8 miles)
Weight train 2 times a week
Ultimately hope to eliminate pain in knee and shoulder with strengthening exercise.0 -
I don't have any solid goals in mind. I need to find some to work towards. Suggestions are welcome. I have about 70 minutes, 3x a week, do devote to running. I could possibly increase that time occasionally but not all the time. On weekends, I can and do increase the time, if I can go outdoors.
For February, I would like to continue to increase my run time and decrease my walk time, in an effort to reach a 10K goal.
Since the month is shorter, my goal will be to run 80K or more, with a minimum 80% of the distance being running.0 -
Register for my first half marathon - it's a lottery system, so fingers crossed!
Otherwise exactly what Tim said: avoid injury and stay mostly in maintenance mode. My current longest run is 8 miles and I would like to build that to 9 or 10.0 -

Have you thought of incorporating intervals to increase the challenge?0 -
Don't really have any goals for February. I would like to lose the last 2lb that I put on over Christmas, and maybe 2 more. My first 10km was supposed to be at the end of March but I still haven't decided if I am going to enter, I have until the 21st or until all the places are gone, at the moment there are 100 places left, at the weekend it was 150!
I don't have any running goals as the weather has been so horrendous I haven't been getting out when I would like, just getting out to run would be nice!0 -
Changed my mind after seeing a photo of me at the last 5K.
New weight goal: 120 (won't hit it this month, will likely lose 1/4 lb per week). Rest stays the same :ohwell:Complete a 10K

- After the 8th, I will start training for a 10k in June using Endomondo Premium
- 3 runs a week with a 4 mile long run for Jantastic
- work toward doing a full push-up off the floor: Changed to working the Convict Conditioning program

I didn't quite get back up to 12-13 miles. I did 10 last weekend and that felt good. This weekend I'll do 12. Had a few nagging aches & pains that wouldn't go away early in the month so I backed off mileage & pace. I think that was the right decision. The past two weeks have been very enjoyable without any pain.
Last Monday I managed to squat my body weight: 155 lbs. Did 5 reps. Today was another nice milestone: I hit 175 lbs on the bench press. No more heavy leg training from now on. Going to focus on one-legged squats and my hips.0 -

I've been active every day.
Hate the Endomondo program. Going back to my modified Jenny Hadfield program.
Made my Jantastic commitments even though I didn't log all of them
Continuing with Convict Conditioning, which is doing great things for me0
