Hooray July! Welcome summer!
We’re halfway through 2015, so it’s time for an overview of my goals for 2015.
3 months ago my quarterly evaluation could be better so let’s see if it’s already better.
2 ultra distances
Nope, not even one ultra yet.
At least, not in a race. Furthest training has been 46km, so technically I’ve done an ultra already, but I’d say it doesn’t count.
Next week will be my 6h race, so first one is definitely covered!
+2500km of running
I have not yet covered 2500km, but I am ahead of schedule, so I’m hopeful.
I should have done 1250km by now and already covered 1476km, which meant I’ve done a whopping 1020km since April 😮
Break distance record (currently ~57km)
Nay, let’s keep them fingers crossed for July 11
Break duration record (currently 5:51)
See above 🙂
Nice-to-haves:
- PB on the 5k
- PB on the 10k
- Marathon under 3:20
- Run a nice trail just to enjoy the scenery (chance is, I’ll already get this at the end of January)
I did the last one with Trail Du Mont and will do it again with Trail Des Fantomes in August.
Funny thing is that ‘PB on HM’ is not included above, but I did achieve this already this year...
So how are your Goals going for 2015? Will you make it or do they need some adjusting?
I’ve got my first Marathon in Late September, and using that for a full on Ultra next year. I’ve got my heart set on the Western States 100, but we’ll see. It’s going to be rather expensive to get too…
Wow, serious ambition. Enjoy the ride and keep listening to your body!
No marathons for me, but my first obstacle race coming in August. Very worried I won’t have enough upper body strength. And, while my runs are nothing like yours, I have increased my milage each week, which was a huge goal….still, it is good to goals we don’t make, so we can continue to try!
Wow those are some ambitious goals! My goals were pretty modest, mostly to focus on running half marathons (#yearofthehalf) and I’ve done 5 so far. I’ve achieved a few PBs but I’m a bit short on distance overall. 2015 part 2, here we come!
I love this! The year goes by so fast, I try to do this with my personal, financial, and health goals every quarter. My running goals this year are on track since I am pretty nice to myself! 🙂 I recently completed my first 13.1 and have signed up for a second one this October. I can’t wait! I’m also adding up my yearly mileage for a 3-person team total goal of 2015 miles in 2015. We might already be there! Thanks for sharing your goals. It’s very inspiring!
Thanks die the support, good luck on managing all your different goals 🙂
Nice. I had some of these, have done my ultra and am also ahead of a 2500km year at the half way point.
Those are some awesome goals! Way to go 🙂 My biggest goal for 2015 was to run my first marathon. I’m scheduled to run on one October 4th and training has been going well thus far!
Oh, that’s coming closer allright. Good luck with the remaining training!
