Happy New Year: Goals for 2011

Happy New Year!

Time for some goal setting!

Mileage: 2050 (conservative, but since I am easing back into running, I am guessing the first few months, I will have low mileage).

Mile: 5:59

5K: 21:30

10k: 44:15

Half Marathon: 1:38

Marathon: 3:33

Overall, I think these are conservative goals, but I am also anticipating a slow start to 2011. If everything works out right, I would aim for 21:15, break 44 minutes, 1:37, and 3:32. But I will stick with the first set and hope for the best.

Other goals:

Strengthen hips and core

Improve swimming form

Continue high grades in grad school

Pass my PhD comps in the the fall

Here's to victory in 2011!
