2019 Plans

I have a few ideas for 2019, but the main plan so far is running the Paris half marathon on March 10th. I've only run 15 km before, and with 2.5 weeks in New Zealand planned for February, the training will be interesting. But in any case I'm excited for that. Besides the half marathon, I hope to run one more race at some point, maybe just a 10k, and generally to do some bouldering at a gym nearby to my work.

Half marathon training looks something like this:
Wk#: Tu/Th/Su runs in km
Wk01: 5/8/10
Wk02: 5/8/10
Wk03: 5/8/12
Wk04: 5/8/12
Wk05: 5/8/14
Wk06: 5/8/16
Wk07: 5/8/18
Wk08: 5/8/20
Wk09: 5/8/10
Wk10: 5/8/21 race!

And I hope to still lift weights, go bouldering, and do one longer yoga session at least once per week each. Maybe a perfect week would look like this:

Mon - evening yoga
Tue - evening weights and 5 km run
Wed - (rest)
Thu - lunchtime 8 km run, evening bouldering
Fri - (rest)
Sat - morning upper body weights
Sun - long run

I'll update at least after the half marathon, and we'll see what else 2019 has in store!

Some random goals for weights, mostly based on the available dumbells in my gym. I'm trying to do more practical training, so using less complex equipment, more dumbells, and more signle-leg.
