I wrote about my goals for 2014 earlier this month. January is over now so I’m posting an update on my progress.
We had fantastic weather on several weekends this month. I was able to take advantage of this and get a good start on 2014’s cycling goal. Running was less weather dependent since I am committed to my training plan.
Even if it is raining or snowing I’ll still go running. Last night I ran 3 miles through both. And if the trails aren’t safe I’m resigned to heading to the gym and using a treadmill to stay on track.
Weight loss is the hardest goal, but I’ve been mostly good about tracking what I eat and the trend is moving in the right direction.
Summary
| Activity | 2014 Goal | January | Progress |
|---|---|---|---|
| Running | 600 miles | 46 miles | 8% |
| Cycling | 1,000 miles | 82 miles | 8% |
| Weight Loss | 40 pounds | 3 pounds | 8% |
Not bad for a cold month. I expect a lot of running miles in February, and with any luck enough nice days to keep the cycling number going up.
