Fitness Friday - 2015 Goals

So I've been a bit quiet over the last few months - sorry about that!
Life's been a bit crazy and I've struggled to keep up with my fitness routine.  It's been frustrating to say the least and with the new year around the corner I thought it was the perfect time to set some fitness goals for 2015.

Who's with me!?

It's so great living in beautiful Cape Town - we can just go running after work and on the weekend and enjoy the beautiful scenery and sunshine.  I like going to the gym as well and have definitely noticed that if I add some strength training to my running the running is easier.  Especially if I focus on my core and do lots of squats and lunges.  I feel like if my legs are stronger I just need to worry about my cardio fitness and not so much my legs getting tired.

So - deciding to focus on running for the next couple of months I have set a few goals which I'd like to share - maybe we could even meet up at some of these events and catch up?

31 / 01 / 2015 - Lion of Africa (10km)
21 / 02 / 2015 - Koeberg (15km)
28 / 02 / 2015 - Century City Express (10km)
04 / 03 / 2015 - Lighthouse (10km)
07 / 03 / 2015 - Constantia Village K-WAY (15km)
29 / 03 / 2015 - SPAR Women's Challenge (10km)
25 / 04 / 2015 - Langebaan Country Estate Weskus Half Marathon (21.1km)

I may not end up doing all of them - but my main goal is to do the half marathon in April.  I did it for the first time last year and it was fantastic!  Such a beautiful run and such a great atmosphere - so definitely want to be a part of that again - this time maybe even a bit better prepared :)

Happy Friday!

Lots of love,
