2012 fitness resolutions

It's the beginning of 2012 and I wanted to set some resolutions. You know, I have never set resolutions before. I always thought they were stupid because how many people really followed through with them? Instead I felt like you were setting yourself up for failure. NOW I think that you fail if you don't set up some goals to go after. We all need something in life to drive us to be better. Whether it is within our home, within our family, or just within ourselves. We need motivation. So allow me if you will to list my resolutions.
1.I want to run AT LEAST a 5k, if not a 10k

2. I want to push myself. Not just with running but with other area's of fitness. I want to do circuit training, I want to do zumba and other dance fitness work outs. I want to explore other ways of becoming strong besides running.





3. I have always been "skinny" but I was always skinny fat. I no longer want to be just skinny. I want my heart to be strong, my lungs to be strong, my whole system. I want to be in the best shape ever.
4. So I have these workout dvds. I've had them for a while actually and I have not  stuck with it. Why? Because they seriously kick my butt. My husband and I both do these and we both struggle. It is hard but I want to finish them. I want to go through ALL the levels and be stronger in the end!
5. I want to learn how to cook and eat healthier. Cooking is not my strong area, but I have to say that I am improving so much. The thing is, I don't want my food to just taste good and fill your belly. I want it to work for you and with your body. I want it to be healthy and that is what I need to learn. How to cook healthier meals.
6. My last resolution for now :) is to have great abs. I don't want to be overly muscular. But I definitely want some nice abs and skinny thighs. Right now my stomach is shrinking and i'm proud of that, but to be able to put on your seat belt without seeing a bulge of fat hanging over. To be able to roll on your side and not see your fat roll with you, to put on a pair of low rise jeans and a t shirt without having a muffin top. Yup. I want great abs!


Side Note: Today I ran for 30 min. stayed between 5.5 and 6.0, I ran 2.65 miles (my best distance in 30 mins) and burned 312 Calories
