So 2024 just began and I still feel like it is 2020 somehow. But “new year, new me” and all of those other sayings and things. We (being family and I) have made it a year out here in the mountains, and we are quite enjoying it. 2023 was a hell of a year.

Even though it may be cliché, I quite like setting goals for myself and the new year. I strive to hit the goals, but don’t go out of my way to get them done - if that makes any sense at all. Most of the time, I just look back at my goals towards the end of the year to see how I did. So with all that, let’s throw some goals out there.

running

  • 1000 miles
  • PR in marathon
  • get a good start on mountain trail running
  • 100 straight days of running

lifting

  • top 200 in bench press
  • top 225 in squats
  • be consistent in lifting throughout the year

other

  • be more active on blog
  • put together some series on the blog
  • finish garage gym projects

So happy new year and a hearty cheers! May you accomplish all of your goals this year.
