New Goal?

Well, since I reached my microgoal, I guess I need to set a new goal.

I know that I want to...
  • Lose another 5 lbs (taking me to 110)
  • Tone my arms, legs, and abs
But I'm not sure how to put those into a measurable goal. I don't have a specific deadline in mind, because I don't have any specific events coming up that I want to use as a timeframe. I do know that I want to do some hiking this summer (Mom and Me hikes should be starting in another couple weeks!) and that I'd like to do the Bikini Workout to get my arms and abs toned. I've been thinking, too, about the Couch to 5K program that I dropped a while back. So here's what I'm thinking...

MWF I'll do the C25K routine for the next 2 months. That will get me running either inside or outside and hopefully I'll be able to run 3 miles at the end of it. It will also change up my exercise routine since I need to do that about now anyway. TTH I'll do the Bikini Workout to get my arms and abs toned. And hopefully, by the end of the 2 months I will be more toned, be able to run 3 miles, and be 5 lbs smaller, too!

So that's it. That's my intermediate goal. To run 3 miles and lose 5 lbs in the next 2 months, so by... let's say by Ellie's birthday, July 19! Okay... it starts Monday!
