Happy New Year 2012!

May 2012 bring you love, peace, health and many happy miles! Do you have a fitness resolution for 2012? These are some of mine:

- Have visible abs by Sept 4th, my birthday.


Like Elizabeth Amber's minus the PhotoShop'ing

Challenges:

-Do 200 crunches, sit-ups and/or pushups five times a week until April 12th

- Rebooting For Life (Entry Program - A 15 day journey to wellness). Basically, I am going to be juicing and blending produce as well as eating raw and cooked vegetables and fruits for the next 15 days. More info here


- Run a half marathon in less than 2 hours.

- Successful complete the RNR Madrid Marathon and the Bank of America Chicago Marathon.

- Practice Bikram Yoga x4/week, minimum.

- Eat 366 apples or 1 apple a day. Learn how to peel an apple in a single long strip.


Talking about apples, I just signed up for the New York City Marathon lottery. IF When I win this year, I need someone to remind me that the plan is to run it in 2013 and not this year. I am just signing up this year to increase my chances. Winning an entry to the NYM really feels like winning the lottery. I totally recommend it to everyone. It's the mother of all marathons. Although, some people might argue that this title is reserved for Boston :-) Hey, I am a true New Yorker, at heart.

    I really like your goals. Especially the 200 crunches, situps or pushups and an apple a day. Seems like a good thing for me to try. I admire you so much for trying to get to Bikram 4x a week. I just want to get it in once a month. I know, I'm terrible.

    Thanks Madison! I admire you for running a sub 1:45 half. I'll be happy with a sub-2 this year. Looking forward to reading about the bodyrock and your 100push up challenge. I might join in Feb.

    Gracias Tania! Acabo de visitar tu blog. No sabia que vivias en Madrid. Que suerte, chica! Vas a participar en el maraton de Madrid en abril? Lo has corrido anteriormente? A ver si nos conocemos! Por las fotos parece que no hay muchas chicas atletas en esta carrera :( Aghghg. Un saludo muy grande a la madre patria.
