** Today's Motivation **

Using SMART acronym:

Specific: The goal should be clear and precise while also serving as MY personal motivator.

Measurable: The goal should be something that can be objectively measured so that I can accurately track progress.

Achievable: The goal should be realistic enough to obtain yet challenging enough to push ME beyond MY regular routine.

Relevant: The goal needs to feel important to ME and align with other fitness-related aspirations.

Time-bound: This provides a deadline and will help stay on task & keep the outcome goal a priority.

** Something fun to share **

Recovery from the Derby Half is going well...

** Next Up **

As of today Not sure I'm going.
