60% + 25% = 85% Total... Right? Eh?
[Photo: Pathway is clean enough for my first run of 2018!]
A couple of my goals for the winter months follow:
Hold Steady for 125 outings.
Keep my running stamina around the 6 mile mark.
Well, let's just say.... that second goal flew out the window when the trails and sidewalks got really icy and the temperatures got really cold and I got as lazy as a slug.
Last 2 days - HS 73 and 74 - two 5-mile walks on Terry Fox Pathway
That being said, today I plan to run a 5-miler on T. Fox Path, first run (I believe) since a trip to Chicago last November. I will record the outing as Hold Steady (HS) 75 and push my miles for the week to 31. Not bad, I say.
A third goal for the winter months follows:
Begin a minor league sit-up, push-up, and stretching routine, and work toward 1000 of each.
Hey, I am now in the habit of completing a few sit-ups, etc., before my morning coffee and computer time, a dozen of each exercise. Thumbs up, I say.
By the numbers, my routines are looking pretty good. Good mileage in January may set the stage for easy running in February.
HS75 will complete 60% of the winter walks/runs. And 250 sit-ups, push-ups, etc. completes 25% of my 'extra exercise' goal. So, 85% ain't bad, eh!!
(Wonky Math makes me feel better : )

Yes, I keep a very detailed account, as usual.
