    I have achieved a lot of fitness goals over the years, but more recently my fitness level had diminished a lot. I was still plugging away trying a bit of this and a bit of that. But since I joined here in February, and started to lose weight, my fitness level has been improving again. :)

    I have exercised every day except 4 days since mid-Feb
    (4 days = 2 days with the flu, 1 day flying from Canada to Australia - I lost a day going over the International Date Line, and one other day where there was just minimal walking because I was in transit most of the day trying to get to my parent's 50th anniversary dinner)

    I have walked over 800 km already this year, hoping to reach 1000 km before the end of the year.
    I have cycled a century (100 miles in one day) ... that was in June.

    So the next two goals on my list are:
    • Cycle up Mt Wellington
    • Cycle a 200 km randonnee

    Since I posted this ...

    I have hit my 1000 km walking goal. I reached it right at the end of November and am now at 1055. :grin:

    I have cycled two 100 kilometre rides ... one as a test ride to see if I could do a particular route, and the other as the actual event. And I finished it 45 minutes faster than last year. :grin:

    I have cycled another century (100 miles in one day) in mid-November. That was one of the more difficult centuries I've ridden with all the climbing, wind, and blustery weather.

    I still haven't cycled up Mt Wellington, but that will likely be a March thing.

    I still haven't cycled a 200 km randonnee, but I've got my eye on one at the end of January.

    Update!

    I have actually done the next two goals on my list. :)

    I cycled a 200 km randonnee on January 30th and I cycled up Mt Wellington mid-Feb. :grin:

    What the hell.

    New goals.

    Run a 15 km by the end of June.

    Run a sub-30-minute 5 km this year.
