Haze grey and meh temperature. Much like many New Year’s Days past, and like many more to come.
Oh, wait one – I was about to write resolutions; ought to go get started on them first.
Alrite – I’m back. Actually ran today, then slow ride to the Y and a K in the pool.
2021 was a good rebuilding year – I think I’ve worked through my ankle issues that have been plaguing me since 2016. I got back in the habit of working out most days, and I’m in a decent mind space. I’ve been doing yoga and seeing changes in posture and muscle.
So, pretty bullish on 2022
Goals:
- 10 miles / week running; 500 miles total for the year. This is 3 5k’s a week, and I think the legs are up to it
- 50 miles / week on the bike; 2500 miles total for the year. Without really trying, and with 2 months off the bike when I borked my arm, I came within 100 miles of this in 2021. Least ambitious goal.
- 2,000 yds/week swimming, 60k total for the year. I’ll be honest – I’m a crap swimmer, but can knock out 1k in less than 25 minutes, and think I can really pick it up. This is 2 swims per week. The yearly total is way off because I think I’m going to travel more, and can’t always find a pool.
- The new goal is 5x week on doing at least 10 minutes of yoga. The Apple+ workouts have been awesome, and I really feel an improvement in the last quarter.
Oh, also more pictures. Failed that today.
