The New Year is just around the corner and it is time to think about our Resolutions for 2012!!! Frankly, I think I've got a disease without any cure!!!!! I blame Maverick!!! There are certain popular races in the area that I have NEVER done. Most people look at me and wonder I could have not done these races. I'm giving in and doing them just because I can! So, 2012 will include the following additional races:
Inaugural LAKE EFFECT HALF MARATHON
Shamrock Half (not local) and if I can make it all work.... the 8k!!! Yep, I want to be a dolphin!!!!
Mountain Goat (10 mean miles of the biggest hills in Syracuse!!!!
Funny thing is, I've done the training runs for 2 years now.
7.7@7 (My first trail race at one of my favorite local places to run)!
Boilermaker (Just me and 15,000 of my closest friends for 9.3 miles, biggest 15k in the northeast)
I will also do many of the races that I've done previously.... okay, probably all of them with the exception of the 5th Syrathon race because I don't plan on being around for it. The amazing part about it is that the first two races are the bread for the Sandwich that includes the Tipp Hill Run (4 miles of more hills). That would mean that Feb. 25th I do my first half of the year, then two weeks later, I run a 4 mile hill race and a week later cap it off with an 8k on Saturday and a Half on Sunday!!!! Crazy!!!!
That isn't all of my goals though. There is one more lurking out there that isn't about doing something new.... just something better. My last big race of the "season" is the 2nd Annual Empire State Marathon/Half Marathon! 1:59:59 or less this time!!!!!! Then, I want to cap it all off with a PR at ESFD Burn Run! Maybe I'll even sneak in a race in Sandals!!!
If you think I'm crazy, you should meet my friends. They are doing 12 Half Marys in 2012!!!! Honor is doing two Half Ironman's and going to PR like nobody's business!!!!!
So, what are your resolutions???? I want to hear them.... so post them to me on here!!!!!
Next time I'll be nice enough to share my latest training ideas!
