2011 Goals - Status Update:
Personal:
- Clean up my diet - I was pretty good with this one until after my back-to-back marathons. Once I finished those races, I kind of forgot that my training level wasn't so intense anymore.
- Eat no more than 25 cupcakes - 23 cupcakes eaten
- Pay off our consumer debt by the end of the year - This didn't happen. Life did. But we are back on track and making strides to get where we want to be.
- Spend $0 on clothing - $278.50 spent - I caved and bought some stuff from Lululemon and a pair of jeans from eBay when my lone pair ripped.
- Run 2,000 miles - 1915.52 miles run.
- Run a sub 1:55 half marathon - Set a new PR of 1:57:06 and recorded a half split of 1:56:18 at the NYC Marathon.
- Take 30+ minutes off my marathon - Completed - 11/12, Richmond Marathon, 4:12:52, 36:46 PR.

1.915 miles...You're a beast! :) Kick-ass 2012 to you!
I can't believe you spent that little on clothing. That's impressive.
You had a freaking great year!
Congrats on an awesome month, and impressive year! I will be starting these monthly recaps in January - I find yours to be very inspiring.
Amazing...looking forward to reading all your goal kicking reports in 2012!
Umm, you actually counted the # of cupcakes you ate all year? WOW! Maybe I should do that... although it might be kinda depressing. Although it would most likely determine my underlining weight problem! lol
Great Year! It's been fun following you through it all!
