Jon's Goals

My goals, even if they don't make sense to you, they make sense to me.

target weight - 220... this takes into account muscle gained by working out, ideal weight is 200; but realistically i don't think i can reach that and still have the muscle i do

goal: quit smoking permanently; with the money i will save; i will be able to pay cash for a new flat-panel tv around x.mas time when all the sales are going on

running goals - complete 3-5 5k this calendar year with times progressively lower; last 5k was 29.30, which honestly could have been better. first one: under 29.15. next under 29, next 28.30 and by year end run a 5k in under 28. i don't think these are too unreasonable, i know i can do them, i think i am just lacking the personal drive to do so.

long term fitness goals - Shamrock Shuffle 8k 2009 in under 45 min. 2008 time was 47.19. Secondly i would like to attempt the hustle up the hancock in february 2009... this is something completely diffent that just running; so i'll have to see how that goes.... i have no idea what exactly it will be like, but looking online, my goal is under 40... that may be adjusted once training begins.
