Small Goals

Here are how some ideas for small goals:

Decide to learn to run. I know that sounds funny but not many people really know how to run. But you may surprise yourself. Key is to start out slow, but within 10 weeks, you could be running for 20 minutes. You will grow so much stronger (physically and mentally). This will even help you reach your overall goal.

Get up early, this will allow you to get 30 min of cardio in before you even start your day. This way all of life’s little events will not get in the way of your workout. This can be your “me” time. The time you take to organize your day and get your thoughts together.

Look at community races. You can make it a goal to run a race and that will get you focused on different accomplishment. The first few races your goal could be to finish then finish with out walking and then under a certain time. It will do wonders for your mind set. It will give you belief in yourself that you can do anything you put your mind to.

Spring is here, it’s time to get off the couch and get back on track with your exercise routine. How you approach your workout can determine the benefits and enjoyment that you'll get from it.
