Compared to many people, my life was just fine so I won't complain too much. But when it comes to my own fitness, 2009 was a bad year.<br /><br />In 2006, I finished the Marine Corps Marathon is 3:45. In 2007, I was trying to qualify for Boston Marathon and ran over 20 miles at sub 7:30 pace. At the time, my weight was about 190. Since then, my fitness routine has completely broken down. I weigh 208. That is unacceptable. Parts of me that shouldn't jiggle are jiggling. Not good.<br /><br />So, here are my goals for April 1st 2010:<br /><br />1. Weight down to 180.<br />2. I can run 10 miles in less than 75 minutes.<br />3. I can do 50 push-ups without resting.<br />4. I can do 50 sit-ups without resting.<br /><br />I will plan on running at least 5 races in 2010 including a fall marathon and a half marathon at some point.<br /><br />There's nowhere to go but up from here, right?<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2592474793274025263-1990441271474589947?l=afastermarathon.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>mmtapnoreply@blogger.com1
