Long term goals:

♦ Not have anymore sugary desserts or whathave you until Lake Powell June 28-july 2

♦ Increase my speed in tempo runs mile 2-6 (preps you for a 10k)

♦ 5k race in 20 minutes or less

♦ 10k race in 45 minutes or less

♦ Make pilates happen! Do it 3 times a week Until the end of August

♦ Drink 6-8 glasses of water daily (which I mostly do anyways, I don't drink anything else)

I really like your goals. That is seriously a hardcore week!

As for the long term: I usually drink 1 soda (Diet Coke) every day. It is one of my only vices and I am not ready yet to give it up :) I like the idea of still having one once per week. Make sure it is a BIG one.

I could never give up sugar desserts. You are much tougher than I am. I do try and only have them in moderation though.

You can reach your 5/10K goals for sure. You are almost there.

If I drank that much water I would never leave the bathroom. Ha. I hate getting old.

well....I already botched a goal by eating a dounut this afternoon. I went to macey's and it's like it was staring me in the face begging me to eat it. So I did. I suck....that one is going to be the hardest one.

That always happens when I see one of those chocolate Dunford donuts. Oh, they are the best, but sooo bad for you. ha.
