January Goals

I'm a newbie on here but wanted to share my experiences and goals for 2020. Started coach to 5k in June and now running 25 to 50 miles a month. Lost over 26lbs in weight and have earned lots of bling and certificates for doing monthly challenges with FITWINS. I am so proud of what I've achieved and am now planning on doing a 10k run in April. Sometimes I find it difficult to get motivated but can look at how far I've come, from only being able to run for 20 secs to doing 2 miles with some jeffing. I've gone from 25 mile medals to now doing 50 miles in one month. My dream would be to do 100 but I know it will take time. I'm also going to try and do all the FITWINS challenges in 2020 and have already signed up for January.

Fantastic effort. Glad you have found something to motivate you. Good number of monthly miles. I've just ticked of 100miles since graduating at the start of October- its amazing to see those numbers clock up

Thanks so much. Yes, it's great to clock off the miles. I want to try and get to 100 miles in one month by the summer. That's my goal. I've got a few 50 mile medals now and am so proud. Well done you :) Graduating and doing 100 miles is great.
