So, its about that time we all get our houses in order and set next years goals. When i first started getting fit it was 2 years ago, and my resoloution and only goal was to drop puppy fat. Now that im a bit more into it, and know a bit more, my goals are more ambitious. My goals this year are:
to run 2250 miles
To have intermediate strength lifts
More definition for my abs/legs
A sub 20 minute 5k
Im going to get all my goals! How about you?

My goal is to kick *kitten*. At everything.
I see an orthopedic surgeon/sports medicine doc on Thursday about my knee, so until then, I can't really do specific goals. In a perfect "oh your knee is fine, suck it up" world I would like to run a marathon.
I'd like to bench my bodyweight. I have 20 lbs to go.0 -
Lose 5lb/mo til I hit goal. Get strong.
Become a runner, or at least a jogger
This is a fantasy actually- my family would drop dead of shock0 -
Run...1,000 miles.0

I'm running my first full marathon in April and my goal is to finish in under 4 hours.
Run my first trail 1/2 marathon in the fall.
Keep my weight below 108.
Take up street in-line skating.
I'd also like to give boxing a chance. Not actually with someone else, but like a punching bag type of workout.0 -
Wow, my goals seem way too humble to follow those above.
I'd like to try yoga.0 -
Reach my goal weight.
Run a 5k in somewhere around 28 minutes.
Run 1,000 miles.
Be happy.

Also, yoga is awesome. Pilates is much more fun, though!0 -
2012 Goals:
- Compete in a crossfit competition (hosted by a gym, not games stuff)
- Run my second marathon
- Deadlift 150% of my bodyweight
- String together 10 unassisted pull ups
- Have visible abs (okay, totally vain, but I don't care)
For goals that I'm not sure if they are realistic and may not happen until 2013:
- Successfully complete a muscle up on the free rings
- Complete a handstand push up (can be against the wall)0 -
Tagging this so I can find it again when I figure out my goals; will be back to post them!0

Get lean & tone for my Jamaican run away wedding in May.0

Mine aren't too crazy compared to this past year.
Break 20 mins in a 5K
run my 2nd marathon
Run 1,000 miles (without having to scramble like mad at the end of december to get them all in like this year)0 -

The trainer I intern with used to fight...he has all sorts of boxing workouts that I am desperate to try once my knee is better!0 -

My kids can do handstand pushups against the wall and it pisses me off! Ha! The 5 year old does gymnastics so she is constantly doing handstands against the wall and I watched her the other day and she would do a head stand, push up to a hand stand, giggle hysterically, back to head stand, down to feet, then run off. I stood there in disbelief.0 -
Get my weight up to around 200 and still look decent0

In 2012 I want to...
...be the best dad I can be to both my 5 year old step son and my baby boy that's on the way.
...have a lot of fun outdoors. After hurting my ankle this past spring, I feel I really missed out on all the good weather.
By the end of 2012 I want to...
...be close to 200 pounds. My current goal weight is 190 but I'm not sure if I will be able to get all the way there with my other goals. I will be happy with anything under 225 if I can reach my other goals.
...bench press my highest body weight (350 pounds). Bench press has always been my weak spot, and it is VERY weak. I got to 250 in college with just a couple months of mediocre work, but I know with a full year of dedication I can do it.
...deadlift 2x body-weight. The beauty of this is that the more weight I lose the easier it will be. I currently rep at 315.
... have 19" biceps. Current 16" Max 18"
...do pull-ups. Any would be fantastic!
...run a 5k. I've done it before, and I can do it again.0 -
I just joined in September and have never set goals in my life. I fear failure so much that I always made excuses as to why goal setting was useless. That has since changed very recently and very drastically! I only have two right now but for me they are humongus! #1 Run a 5K by the end of February, I just started the C25K program yesterday. #2 do "The Big Climb" on March 25th (it's 69 floors, 1,311 stairs!) I will obviously be adding to my goals once I prove to myself I can do those two to start with. And of course reach my goal weight!
Peace! :flowerforyou:0 -
These are some of my goals for 2012. I am sure I'll add more as I think of more things I want to accomplish and I will be keeping an eye on this post for more ideas.
1. Reach my goal weight
2. Run/walk 1,000 miles
3. Start strength training
4. Start hiking or some other outdoor activity :-)
5. Run at least 3 5Ks
6. Run a 5K in under 30 mins0 -
