Apart from the Monthly accountability thread, I would like to set in stone my goals for this year, and then check them off. Please, feel free to join.

My goals for this year are:

1. My highest weight for this year is what is was yesterday : 71.0
2. Maintain around 69.xx
3. Achieve the 100 pushup challenge from the toes (that's a biggie !)
4. Get 400.000 steps; a daily 10.000 + some longer walks
5. Ride 5.000 km (a good 3.100 miles) with my bike

    1. Get down to The Ultimate Goal Weight which will probably be about 62-63kg (136-137lbs), depends a bit on muscles gains too
    2. Increase upperbody strength so I can do some unassisted chin-ups/pull-ups
    3. Run the Antwerp 10 Miles
    4. Try a longer fast (72h+) once this year

    First checkin for January:

    1. first of all that was a typo, it should have said 72 :smiley: I've ended January below 71, so that's ok. Today is over but I assume that's just a fluke
    2. Not yet in the maintaining phase
    3. Yes, I've mastered week 2 - now starting week 3
    4. I'm on track - although there is a typo as well, as it should have been 4.000.000
    5. I've already done around 80km, which is more than planned for a winter month

    End of March, going into April:

    #1 Get STRONGER and Fitter (keep up with workouts)
    I'm keeping up with exercising despite the closing of gym!

    #2 RUN 500 miles/yr
    I haven't been tracking but I know I ran more than last month.

    #3 ENTER/Complete at least 4 races (with my son)
    This one is disappointing. The ones I signed up has been cancelled. 2 have been cancelled and 1 have been postponed.

    #4 ACHIEVE and Maintain 19% Body Fat
    Yup

    #5 EAT and REST well
    Yup, with the work from home order, I get 1 extra hour of sleep. I can get used to this.

    #6 AGE gracefully...
    WIP :)

    End of April, going into May! (already?!)

    #1 Get STRONGER and Fitter (keep up with workouts)
    I'm still keeping up with exercising despite the closing of gym! With weather warming, I want to spend more time out.

    #2 RUN 500 miles/yr
    It's not exact but I ran about 40 miles in April.

    #3 ENTER/Complete at least 4 races (with my son)
    This one is disappointing. The ones I signed up has been cancelled. 2 have been cancelled and 1 have been postponed.
    Not sure about this goal.

    #4 ACHIEVE and Maintain 19% Body Fat
    Need work! Still on 19's but want to get it back to 19.0%.

    #5 EAT and REST well
    Yup, with the work from home order, I get 1 extra hour of sleep. I can get used to this.
    Still the same. Cooking every meal, watching what I make, it's getting easier.

    #6 AGE gracefully...
    WIP :)
