Not get sacked / Get through the year with minimal fuss.
Every year is mostly this. I enjoy my job but no need or desire to do anything more
Physical Goals
Get back my lost fitness - life has been horrific and this has meant, even with my post IM break, my well renowned diesel engine is in pieces
Finish the 10 hrs / 10 lap race in March - aiming for the 4 mile loops
Possibly do the London Hyrox at the end of the year - entry dependent
Life / Hobby goals
Finish my Bucky/Winter Soldier cosplay - various factors have meant this has been dragging on. Am getting ready to make a pair of leather tactical boots, so that’s a new skill set. Then it’s molding and casting a rubber arm and then making look like metal
Try to move on from my relationship - every day I still feel sad, but there’s been things happening that make it difficult.
Replace the decking in the garden
Redecorate the bed room - hasn’t been done for 20 years
A lot of this is dependent on injuries. So there may be a huge asterisk next to some of this.
Ideally, I want to do 3 or 4 local running races. Huge local running scene, about 30 events within 15 miles of home every year. Want to pick some of my favourites and get going (did 1 last year).
Do a triathlon. Any will do. Even an overpriced sprint.
If I can get some speed in the old legs, perhaps a Aquathlon.
Return to swimming. After a consistent couple of years, I’ve been twice in 4 months.
Today was my scheduled start day for 2025 build but instead I’m injured and will be for a minimum of 3-4 weeks. Glad I didn’t put ‘remain injury free’ in my 2025 goals as I can now still claim I’m on track
Not sure I’ll be saying the same in 8 weeks after the first half marathon of the year.
