As I entered my yardage in my Fitness Log today, I noticed that we are 20% through the year. I also noticed that I’m about 10 miles behind my goal pace. My new mini goal is to get back on pace by the end of March… I want that Nike draw string bag!!!
I’m finding that having a Goal and the annoying reminder “You'll need to pick up the pace to achieve your goal this year:” is actually working to get me to the pool on days that I would in the past have skipped.
How about you?
Still waiting for last years 500 mile carrot. Do they actually send these out?

Dear Go The Distance Participant,
Thank you so much for your patience while we work diligently to get you your free swim suit! Nike has informed us the suits will be sent out on Friday of this week, April 6th. Please give it up to 10 business days to reach you, and of course, please feel free to contact me should you have any questions.
Not surprising really. A certain swim club does the same thing. They set a goal with a carrot. You complete the goal. Then they change the rules, so you no longer qualify for the carrot. You re-do the entire goal the new way and the carrot is still not delivered.
Anyone else still waiting for last year's carrot(s)?
