This goals post is harder to write than most years. With a baby coming in April I don’t want to set many athletic focused goals.

I would love to race something fun in late 2018, and I really hope to, but I don’t want to put undue pressure on myself to run any specific distance. After having Cannon my body didn’t feel ready to run anything more than six miles until six months after having him and who knows how recovery will go this time.

Given that, I think my main goal for 2018 is keeping my family healthy. I want to have keep this sweet little girl happy and healthy until she comes into this world, have a healthy delivery and keep Cannon happy and healthy during all of this baby craziness.

Since I can’t seem to think long-term about big goals beyond healthy I hope to focus on smaller goals each month this year.

Wishing you all a happy and healthy 2018!
