February goals coming next week. Here’s how I did in January.
Get back on track with Couch to 5K. I’m very happy to report that I made this happen! I started over with C25K Week 2 on January 4 and have progressed back up to Week 4. I’m currently repeating Week 4 because I felt like I could use a few more workouts with 5:00 running sessions before jumping to 8:00 in Week 5.
I’ve been running 3 times each week, and trying NOT to put myself in a situation where I have to run two days in a row. My knees have been feeling a little creaky, so I feel like having a day off after each run is what I need right now. I have to remember that I didn’t run at all for 10+ months and it will take time for it to feel “easy” again. Slow and steady is my goal.
Make one meatless meal each week. I managed to do this for 3 of 4 weeks in January. I just had to remember my goal each Sunday when I sat down to make a meal and grocery list for the week. We had egg and cheese quesadillas the first week, orzo with eggplant and mozzarella for week 2, and breakfast for dinner (eggs, hashbrowns, biscuits) earlier this week.
Make a mug rug. Done!
p.s. I also stayed on track with my two year-long goals: I did this month’s One Little Word prompt and read nearly every day.
