last year's accomplishments, next year's goals

A year ago I posted:

Since December's about over, I figured it would be a good time to think about/imagine/dream/plan goals for 2011.

Any running-related goal is valid, whether it's to run a 100-mile ultramarathon or to run 2 miles in a row. It can be to complete a distance, or race a distance, or attain a speed, or run a certain number of miles per week, month, or year. No judging anyone else on their speed or their slowness. These are all personal goals, relative to where we are now and where we want to be.

Feel free to put your goals in comments, or to post them in your own journal and link them here. This is mostly a placeholder and reminder so you can come back in a year and see how well you succeeded!

So, how did you do? Did you achieve your goals? Did events conspire to prevent you? Did you completely punt on them? What have you learned about yourself and about running through your successes and failures?

What are your goals for next year?

Even if I didn't meet my old and secret goals of a) running 2-3 times every week, b) running 10K in under 1 hour, c) running a half-marathon, 2011 was hands-down my awesomest year of running yet:

1. I met my stated goal of going running more than once \o/

2. I PR'd 4 times on the 5K!

3. I PR'd on 10K!

4. I ran my longest race yet, 13,3K.

5. I ran the most K in one month yet, 50 km!

6. I participated in the most races in a year, something like 11 races.

I don't know how I'm going to top that :)

My goals for 2012 will be to keep running semi-regularly, and to participate in races, and to work on just signing up for that half-marathon and just sucking it up :)
