Be a goal digger

30 more days... eek! 30 more days until what you may be asking? In 30 days, I will be running my next 5K. It will actually be my 5th run not including the town runs I have participated in for our town celebrations. Ever since I participated in my first 5K, I made a goal for myself to continue to do one every year. Needless to say, I have stuck with it.

• 5k color run
• 5k inflatable run
• 5k rugged maniac run
• 15k terrain run
• next up- 5K hot chocolate run

I love doing them that I have an ultimate goal of participating in a marathon within the next few years.

Why did I go back to the 5K rather than the 15K? Well, I chose to do a 5K versus the 15k this year because I have special group of people joining me. With that being said, I am excited to say my family will be participating in this run with me. I do not know how excited they are about it, but I am pumped. No we will not be going at the same pace nor do I expect them to run, and they are aware of it. May sound weird and/or dumb that But it is just an amazing feeling knowing that they are willing to take on a new experience.

Do you have any goals? How about a fitness goal? Goals are vital in our lives. They are what keep us motivated. They make us work that much harder. They are beginning of our dreams and our accomplishments at the end.
