COT:

Today is the 100th day of the year (usually it’s day 99 but it’s a leap year). It’s also my M’s half-birthday and a good time to reflect on how things have been going so far.

Any New Year’s resolutions? How have those been going?

  • Baby Shark’s chose your hard (being unhealthy is hard, staying fit is hard…)
  • I want to get better at running up hills

Today can serve as a checkpoint…

  • Ask yourself about your goals and why you set them. (I want to improve my overall fitness/endurance and struggle with going up hill)
  • If things have changed, modify to fit where you’re at now. (I can keep going up hills but I want to be able to go faster now)
  • Set a reminder for 7 July to check back in (100 more days from today)

You are all impressive, disciplined, and focused people who I take inspiration from every time I push myself to just post.
