They're always nice to have, make and then re create and re create.
Besides being on track for YOUR own well being... sometimes it isn't enough motivation for us.
So that why making very specific goals are so important.
They give us an exact point that we want to reach so we can prove to ourselves that we are unstoppable, once we get there.
I'm a little stuck now.
My goal to lose weight is wayyyy in the past and since then I haven't set any goal but to create habits to remain weekly in my life forever.
It's the main goal but I won't reach there until I die so I want to set up like goals to work toward in between now and then.
Theres no right or wrong way, no too big or too little goal.
The point is that you make one, focus in on it, and attack it!
So thank goodness for stumbleupon.com, I found my goal to work toward for these next two month!
(Which is the coolest website. I highly recommend you check it out if you have never before.)
It's a marathon without just the running. It an obstacle course you'd see as a challenge on Survivor. It's the dirtiest marathon obstacle course put on by extreme organizations called Tough Mudder and Warrior Dash.
The course consists of carrying logs, running through "burning houses", fire pits, crawling in the mud under barbwire, and a bunch of other crazy strenuous tasks.
And you thought that sounded hard? Some of them as long as ten miles.
For those of you who know me well this is right up my alley.
Of course I want to compete but I want to do well so I have to start training.
On these websites they have workouts that prepare you and I'll put those that I think are a really good workout, in a blog when I start training, for you guys.
So far I know I have one person who definitely wants to participate with me but, I think it would be fun and even more motivating, if I got a coed team together for this!
Here's the links to the websites if any one is interested in getting in shape and competing in something completely different.
Just remember, this isn't for the people who just like getting dressed up in war paint and want a cool shot running through fire for their facebook default, this is serious.
hehe not really so check it out :)
oh and for the beer drinkers, after-party is included. should be a hoot.
