Looks pretty good to me! How challenging a course is your trail maratahon likely to be?

Chris, I love you the way you think and once again you inspire me to re-visit my own approach to fitness and running. :)

I agree Reba. Chris is the motivation man! Seriously, goals and plans help us stay focused. Good for you.

Yeah. Goals are a funny thing aren't they. Four years ago, I began running because...um, er, I was running away from something and I wanted to shed 30 pounds. After I lost the weight I was still running from something and it did not seem I could run far enough so I built up to running marathons.
Since then (yes, I've now run far enough!), my goals were static for a while in that I ran to keep in shape so I'd be healthy for my kids now and into the future. I did/do not want to be the kind of parent that can't get off the couch and throw a baseball with my kids.
Lately, my focus has grown to include wanting to become stronger, more powerful and flexible. What I'm after is to re-capture some of the youthfullness of years past. I truly believe many of us lose speed, agility, flexibility etc because we slow down and don't have fun with exercise. I also believe we can get those things back through hard work and increasing one's range of activity in a playful manner.
blah blah blah?

Yeah, goals do have an interesting way of morphing and evolving. It's never a straight shot from point A to point B, more like a meander. I figure the process of working towards a goal helps to clarify that goal and even change it into something that makes the most sense to you or that may even surprise you. All your goals sound very do-able and I like that you've put them into writing.
