Weekly Chase #2

If you haven't heard about the Weekly Chase that my friend over at Live, Love, Run does each week- you should really go over and read about it. Even if you don't blog, it is an awesome way to keep weekly goals and try and reach them! If you want to know more about the Weekly Chase go HERE.


In last weeks Weekly Chase, I gave myself 4 goals. I have to be honest with you though and tell you that after the week started and some of my goals changed... I went back and changed them. I only changed my fitness goals... but I worked hard to make sure that I did complete the goals I had set for myself.. So for last week my goals were:
1. Batch Cooking: To cook and freeze-- another pack of Pizza Muffins and 4 full size Chicken Pot Pies and 4 individual pot pies. --I did it!! All on Monday, too. Someone asked that I blog about my batch cooking and I hope to have that blog ready for Tuesday! :) So make sure you come back!  I might add that I canned 14 jars of salsa too! 

2. To run 20 miles. - DONE! 

3. To do 30 Day Shred 2 times this week. -DONE! 

4. To cook dinner each night the husband is off! (I have really, really been slacking on this lately and I do not like that) - DONE! I did this each night except for Monday night and Sunday night because we ate at a friends' house! 
-------------------------------------------------------
On to this week.. I am so excited to share that my Lil Sis, Brittany, is joining in on the Weekly Chase now too.. So you get to keep up with both of us and motivate us both...

4. To run 21 miles this week. 
5. To get Sam's baby shower stuff finished before Friday! 
6. To continue with my NO DIET DR. PEPPER or Energy Drinks! 
7. To be in bed BY 11pm (this is huge) each night and set my alarm and get up at 5am! 

Lil Sis! 
1. Finish painting our blue walled living room!
2. Go on a date with my husband!

    1. Ya our international students that live with us throughout the year are about to get back and I really want to deep clean their rooms...since they are boys, it doesn't get a good cleaning throughout the school year! haha also why we need a good date, out of the house, because life with school starting is going to get busy fast!

      You should def. plan a fun date with your husband! Mine will be to Olive Garden for sure!

  6. Wow, great job on hitting those goals!!!

    You know what I love about your goals? They make up a pretty great to-do list. They aren't over the top, they aren't impossible. They're a like something you'd throw on a list and just mark off...check, check, check. Love. :)

    PS: LOVE the water goal...I, too, need to check myself on the water. I've been terrible about it. I've been fueled by sweet tea over the span of this move!
