4th week's goals of 2014

My goals for week 4 of 2014 were these:
Run 3-4 times and have a total of 10 miles for the week in running, bike further than week 3, swim further than week 3. Complete all of my classes. Try a Yoga class.

Here is how the week went:

Monday:  I had off of work for the holiday, so I took full advantage to have a great workout.  Started with teaching body sculpt class, walked 1.25 miles, ran .25 miles on an indoor track, swam 1093 yards.  Seized the moment in the afternoon to enjoy the sun and 34 degrees and ran 4.40 miles outside!

Tuesday:  Didn't feel so great in the morning, so I didn't exercise before work, after work taught my body sculpt class

Wednesday:  Body Sculpt class before work, Yoga class after work.

Thursday:  Zumba class, then ran 3.15 miles on a treadmill.

Friday:  Biked 15 minutes before work,   Swam 13  laps or 650 yards  in a team triathlon (5 laps were warm up before the triathlon started)

Saturday:  Swam  10 laps or 500 yards (two were warm up before the Indoor Triathlon started)   Biked  30 minutes    Ran 2 miles.  Walked over a mile.   Later Saturday afternoon went out in the FREEZING cold and ran 1.13 miles so that I could achieve my weekly goal of over 10 miles for the week.

Sunday: Rest

I didn't achieve biking further than week 3, but I came close, so this week I upped that goal for the bike.  I did achieve doing a yoga class and running at least 10 miles.  This week was crazy busy, so I'm grateful to have done well with working out and achieving most of my set goals.

2nd week's goal

For my 2nd week of 2014 my goals were swim twice, but a little further both times than the week prior.  Run 3 times, however run further each time than the week prior.  Then lastly to get on my bike and ride at least 20 minutes.  The bike is on a trainer in the basement since it's way too icy, snowy, slushy, cold and gross to go outside on my nice road bike.

I achieved all of these.  I even did a little extra this week.  I did 2 miles on the elliptical on Monday.  Taught Body Sculpt on Tuesday and ran 3.1 miles.  Wednesday I taught Body Sculpt.  Thursday early morning I got on the bike and rode for 25 minutes.  Then after work on Thursday ran 2 miles, taught Zumba, then swam laps.  Friday I rested.  Today I ran 4 miles outside and then swam a bunch of laps. Sunday I will rest again.

Elliptical 2 miles
Running  9.1 miles
Swam  1972 yards

For my 3rd week my goals are these:  Swim once of 2000 yards, or twice of 1000 or more yards each.  Run 3-4 times and the distance doesn't matter this week, just run at least 3 times.  Bike once of 25 minutes or twice at 15 minutes each.  Get on the elliptical once and do at least 2 miles.  Teach my regularly scheduled classes which are 3 body sculpts and 1 Zumba.

I feel great this week.  I'm thankful that this week I was healthy enough to achieve my goals.

1st week's goal

Instead of New Year's Resolutions, I like to make weekly goals.  My first week's goal of 2014 was to run 3 times, do Zumba for at least 45 minutes, and swim twice.

I did just that.  I ran on Monday 1.6 miles, Thursday 1 mile and then on Saturday 2 miles.  On Monday I swam 14 laps and then on Saturday I swam 17 laps.  On Thursday I did Zumba for 50 minutes.

For my 2nd week my goals are these:  Swim twice, but a little further both times than the week prior.  Run 3 times, however run further each time than the week prior.  Get on my bike (which is on a trainer in the basement) and bike at least 20 minutes once this week.
