2010 Running Resolutions

One of the things running has taught me is how to set goals and figure out what you need to do to attain them.  These are my running resolutions for 2010:

1. Sub 2 hour half marathons:  Half marathons are the next step in my journey towards distance running.  I'll run my first ever half marathon in Sheffield in April.  I aim to break the 2 hour mark in Alderney on 4 September
2. Sub 50-min 10k: this is an ambitious one, but hopefully as my stamina increases and I do some speed training, I will be able to break the 50 min mark by the Abbey Dash in November
3. 1000 miles in 2010: a shade under 20 miles a week.  This seems like an achievable number that allows me to push for a goal whilst still having space to accomodate rest breaks if needed
4. Race a Month: Inspired by club member Kay, who set herself this challenge in 2008, I'll enter at least one race (Parkruns don't count except for the championship race) each month.  I'm hoping to get a good spread from 5k - 13.1 miles.
