2017. A new year. A blank page.<\/h2>\n

The time when most of us make New Year’s resolutions. To be honest I stopped making resolutions a few years ago, mainly because I had broken them by late January and then felt like a failure so threw them all out of the window.<\/p>\n

So instead I make goals. Something to aim for. Something that doesn’t really matter if I haven’t made it by February. Something that inspires me to be better than I am right now.<\/p>\n

I have made a few personal goals, mainly around spending quality time with my family and around living more sustainably, but I’ve also made a few running ones too.<\/p>\n

2017 was going to be the year of my very first marathon but unfortunately, it’s not going ahead now. I suppose I could sign up for another one but I kind of feel that I’ve been handed a Get Out of Jail Free card. Lol! I know! I’m a wimp!<\/p>\n

My running goals therefore are centred around PB’s.<\/p>\n

1. Run 5k consistently under 30minutes (I have broken 30 minutes 3 times over 2 years so far)
\n2. Run 10k under an hour (my current PB is 1:04:35)
\n3. Run a Half Marathon under 2:30 (I have approx. 10 minutes to knock off here)<\/strong><\/p>\n

I’d like to think that these are achievable with the right training and the right mental attitude.<\/p>\n

Any hints or tips gratefully received.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
