I Am Setting My Sites On A Goal!

Lately, I have been inspired by some of my family members. I have one who competes in 1/2 and full marathons, and another who just competed in a 1/2 Iron Man. All very cool stuff! I too wanted something to train for. However, I don't really care for the super long distance competitions.

Enter Fitathlon Challenge. I stumbled upon this last night, and I think it is exactly what my addiction calls for. It is a 5K course with approximately 18 obstacles along the way. It is geared to really test your fitness level. Some of the obstacles: Walls, chain pull, tire flips, ropes, lunges, calisthenics, over/unders, balance beam, and on and on. It looks really cool, and I am working on putting together a training plan. I really like their slogan "The Official Sponsor of Sweat"

Thus far I will continue with my Ruthless routine as I believe it will build a great endurance and increase my fitness level. I am going to add in a walk to jogging segment as well, and a strength training regiment. I don't have all the particulars worked out since I just found it last night. However, I am very excited.

My target event will be in March 2015 in Atlanta. This is the next event that will allow for a practical training time frame.

Check out there website. Who knows you may decide you want to enter the event with me.
