Real David H.

I have such a hard time staying focused on my goals – I’ve certainly crossed off some of the goals on my rolling list, or am on track, but I find with each passing moment that I’m not motivated by them or they compete in priority too much.

What if I change my approach, again? Well, there are no rules to this, and I’m the only one who actually cares about my goals, so I say YES. I can change whatever I want.

Without diving into too many thoughts, I really just want my goals to be this, without having things to necessarily measure them:

1. Be happy, consistently. This doesn’t mean that runs won’t suck or be completely miserable from time to time. I just want to say that I’m happy with running whenever someone asks me. Right now I feel like I have some long, drawn-out story to tell about how I’m not thrilled with things.

2. Get to November healthy … and happy. I think COVID is making me think I need to play catch up with running a variety of races. Right now I just need to focus on the Richmond Marathon, running more miles and getting to the start line in a happy place.

That’s it. That’s all I want to focus on right now. All the things in my last post can happen (I still want them too), but I grew tired of that process very quickly.
